I think it would actually be better. The pantheon in greek mythology is run by imperfect gods whereas monotheistic releigions are run by a God who's doctrine cannot be questioned. If we had multitheistic religon we'd run our lives based on reason, not because we have some higher power that tells us what to do.

the key word here is reason, something christianity lacks.
throughout christian history all you hear is "because of god" and you hear things like fear of knowledge. pagans never had this, infact pagans embraced knowledge.
if a human being could ever be considered perfect, he would be a pagan. because a pagan is open minded. they were anti christian because of the very obvious flaws in it.
christianity preached the world was flat for example, and the norse (and more and more evidence shows celts as well) knew of the americas, thus showing they knew the earth had to have been round.
