Default Sanctity in Mythic Earth

In my game world which is based on the earth of myths and legends I was thinking that the mere act of worship causes Sanctity to come into existance. The gods require worship by mortals in order to sustain their godhood. In the early ages tribal spiritsewere the gods and then came the likes of Thor, Zeus and Orsirus. Lastly came the monotheistic faiths which pulled in far more worshippers and reduced the god status of the tribal spirits and even the polytheistic faiths. Some say that if Zeus were worshipped by more people then he could rival Christianity in Mythic Earth as could other gods. It could be that demonic cults are crushed so quickly because if they were allowed to flourish then the demon lords could attain the power of the gods and be released from a Hell. The Elder Gods are not divine or gods but instead are alien entities from other realities that can use the power of Sanctity to enter the mundaneworld should they aquire enough worshippers. The mere act of worship creates and energy called Sanctity in Mythic Earth.
