The situation with Sam is different. She deals with NORSE gods who are way more chill. The Greek gods are pretty much known for wiping entire civilizations off a map for a person missing the morning sacrifice.

It's doubtful that every demigod that goes into camp would be totally fine with worshipping the Greek parthenon. From my understanding, it is in every Abrahamic religion that it is blasphemy to worship any god but the true God. Besides:

-Diocletian massacred thousands of Christians for not being pagan worshippers. Diocletian is the same man praised in the series for BEING pagan and is passed off as a role-model that all our heroes look up to. I'm sure a Christian demigod would be disgusted by this attitude.

-The purpose of Hanukkah was that the Jews' sacred temple was desecrated by a shrine of Zeus being erected in it and being ordered to worship Zeus or they and their families would be killed. They rebelled and were almost destroyed in a genocide by the pagan rulers.

-Not to mention that the Greek gods are some of the most disgusting, amoral deities to ever exist in mythology.

So, when a monotheistic halfblood refuses to do the daily food sacrifice or pray to the pagan gods, are they smited right then and there?
