Are the current crop of gods just more in the long list of man made gods that will die out eventually?

Well, throughout history, there has been thousands.  Just about every culture had the own gods.  Greeks had over 40 gods, Egyptions had over 60 gods, and those are just the obvious ones.  What about the Inka's, and various American Indian cultures.  Even the middle east before Mohamed brought Allah and Jesus brought Christianity had hundreds of Gods... One for just about everything.  Exact numbers, I don't think any would ever be able to give you that, but I could be wrong, let's see what is posted (other than the Christians who say only one god, and muslims who say only one allah).

no. the Druids enjoyed knowledge and evolved with it, rather than becoming stagnant like many other religions. Today Druids are still nature loving knowledge seekers.

I dont believe it will die out. Other religions that have died out were because of restictive rules regarding location/worship etc, or restricted by bithrite. like the Parsee religion of today, it only has around 10 000 followers becuse you can only be born into it. it is likely it will die out in the future.\n\nChristianity, due to its inclusive and accepting nature is unlikely to die out. the catholic faith, iregardless of all other christians has more followers than all the other faiths put together! Christianity is on top, coz its teachings are true and valid!

I think that yes in time the religions of this society will be considered mythology.I do find it kind of strange that we refer to old religions as mythology. Maybe it's because we think we've disproved them as true. Won't that kick us in the butt when we find out that ours isn't the truth huh?

The Greek Gods were believed to live on top of Mount Olympus. At that time it was not feasible to go to the top of Olympus and make a definitive assessment that there were no gods up there. In the modern era, we have been able to ascertain this beyond any reasonable doubt.\n\nWe have also been able to ascertain beyond reasonable doubt that 1) the universe is a lot more than 6,000 years old; 2) the earth is not the center of the universe, or even the solar system; 3) for God to sit above the circle of the world (Isaiah 40:22) is geometrically and geographically impossible; 4) having only one human parent is genetically impossible, and anyway, there are much more compelling explanations for a child being born less than 9 months after his parents' wedding; and 5) in the absence of a coroner, it's pretty easy to decide someone is dead, and then have them come back to life without a miracle. \n\nSo to most educated people in the modern world, such religions are already considered mythology. It's just that there are still an awful lot of uneducated people in the world, who still cling to their superstitious belief structures in the face of overwhelming evidence. They will probably continue to do so for many years to come.

They are too many. God of everything whoever makes the list it will still be incomplete.

There are an infinite number of Gods. Ultimately, They all come from the same source of Divinity, as do we.

Yes, It is, but God already took care of them. It's all about a Totalitarian Dictatorship in Heaven. God is the Joseph Stalin / Idi Amin of the heavens.

Humans seem to like this stuff...\n\nAmazingly, the below quote is from an Assyrian tablet that is 4,800 years old, older than any part of the bible:\n\n"Our earth is degenerate in these latter days. There are signs that the world is speedily coming to an end. Bribery and corruption are common."\n\nThat was written in 2,800 BCE.  It does appear there is nothing new under the sun.\n\nCheck out the site below for even more "End Times" that have come and gone.

Probably not, as there is some link between the Olympian sky gods and those that evolved into the Hindu pantheon.  The remainder were indigenous native spirits and animal totems plus a very strong goddess cult represented by such goddesses as Rhea, Hera, Athena, Demeter and Kore (Persephone), plus many others, often arranged into triads.\n\n["Nephilim" comes from the Bible, and means "fallen ones," though it has also been translated as "giants."]

Nope---nowhere in the Bible does it say that as soon as the last of the 12 disciples died God would cease to perform wonders...and that's really illogical, too.

This is completely unknowable.\nI believe that Norse Gods numbered about a dozen, Egyption were more than a dozen, Greek were considerably more than a dozen.  Hindu has over a thousand documented Gods.  Depending on the sect, Buddhism has one, several, or no Gods.\n\nThe Hebrew, Christian, Mormon, and Muslim Gods can be reliably counted as one since all these religions sprouted from eachother.\n\nI would have to say a rough estimate of 1500 to 2000, but an actual number is completely unknowable when you consider the number of either long dead or alive but undocumented religions.

There's an army of Gods up there and who knows how many have been slaughtered.
