Dwyfach, sagarmatha, isis, mina, jupiter, shiva, allah, zeus, miyolangsangma, jesus of nazareth, rongo, wandjina, cai chen, sarpanitum, khan bhogda, daikoku, thor, hiiakawawahilani, jhvh, inti huayna capac, eeyeekaldu and al-lat are a small and random selection of respected gods that have been worshipped in sincere and elaborate manners by large groups of faithful people.
It is claimed that most of these gods are active today. They often take a pivotal place in people's life.
Most of these gods (like shiva or daikoku) are members of crowded pantheons full of powerful deities who are all individually worshipped. Others are assisted by myriads of demigods (like catholic saints). I left all these out (including satan), to keep the list short. For that reason I also ignored denominations.
I would be grateful if you could answer the following question: Why should one not believe in the factual existence of any of these gods?
well I dont beleive in religion or any god and the god "jesus" that so many people know is a relatively new god in compared with so many other that people have beleived in for longer in different cultures, people beleive in different things dating way, WAY back when people pretty much first existed over time, new gods are created and a selection of people will worship that one but (though I dont beleive in god) there is no ONE god there are many of them, and many people beleive that theres is the right one we dont live in a world thats completely overrun by athiests, or christians, ect we live in a world full of differenmt cultures that all belaive in something different, or even if not at all but that being said, people are stubbourn, especially mainstream religions like christianity they beleive theres is right, nothing else exists, and that if someone doesnt worship THERE god, they go to hell...every culture and religion has different opinions but its those people that you always see telling other people to worship theres as I said, I dont beleive in religion, and am glad im not a part of it but thats my opinion. and I stand by it. I really couldnt care less about "gods"
I'm not familiar with all those listed but some are believed to be tribal variations of the same deity, e.g. Jupiter/Zeus/JHVH/Allah. Some not listed by yourself can be added to the varying iterations of another deity: Thor/Heracles/Arthur/Indara/Eindri. Jesus has been equated with these deities: Horus/Balder/Mithra/Attis/Krishna/Dionysus/Buddha.
Check out the works of noted Anthropologist/Etymologist, L. Austine Waddell.
To answer your question, some are worshipping particular variations of the selfsame deity unbeknown to themselves, if these assertions are born out. Belief is a subjective undertaking though... and reason dependent upon the individual... all a matter of opinion... not the greatest base for arguments.
No one should *** NOT believe *** but you may run into a difference of opinion because most people have different definitions of the word “god” but think that everyone is using the same definition as they do. To explain my point let me add two other gods to the list First is ... 1966 Toronado Second is ... Blond 36-24-36
Both are *** worshipped in sincere and elaborate manners by large groups of faithful people ***
This is my definition of the word god – Anything or being (to include yourself) the worship directly or indirectly, is a god.
110% of the people on the world have a god or gods. Some do not know it though.
yea sorry bout the way I answered it...I just I don't know I got a temper problem but yea...I mean just a word of advice...dont worship any other "god" because the true god, it says in the bible, is a jealous god...he'll do something...and it wont be fun...so yea..
Good question , they are more ancient than the biblical god,why shoulodn't they be worshiped? & the gods that are most actice are the voodoo believe it or not, but yeah, some people stil lworship those gods, I may know a couple of people who stil do.

god is the only one, jesus is gods son, so jesus is basicly god himself only he came to earth in human form, there are no other gods, only retards who come up with stupid names for non existing things...god is the only one
baseballman4life and Amblessed... wow guys... you certainly know what it feels like to reject a religion or two!!
And Guru4god, I am trying man... but I have no clue what you are talking about...
Good question, they are more ancinet than the biblical god, why shouldn't they be worshiped? I know a couple of plp who still worship them. & voodoo gods are the most active in modern day.
...because there is no credible evidence any of them are real.
You could add fairies and leprechauns to your list and ask the same question.
Because there is only one true God - His word, the Bible, says if you truely 'seek' Him, you WILL (not maybe) find Him...Take care !!
