Epicureans and Stoics Had Beliefs- True or Not

 Epicureans and Stoics were both believers in a god or gods. Stoics believed in a divine principle or Logos and Epicureans leaned toward an identity as Deists. The actual beliefs of ancient Greek philosophic schools are different from those of modernity generally. Some of the ancients would be closer to Spinoza paradigmatically. They tended toward regarding god as a divine principle or power in back of everything, if they weren't polytheists. There isn't much of a relationship, if any, between those ancient schools and modern people of faith or of those that aren't. There are no simple answers in the field. One may of course compare and contrast ideas in a secular sense, phenomenally. That too generates synthetic ideas for-oneself and not necessarily an objective sense of what is true concerning various kinds of faith.
