its a very christian point of view to insist on only one god , where there are plenty of references to many gods
Exodus 23:13-32
Make no mention of the name of other gods, neither let it be heard out of thy mouth. (v.13)
Thou shalt not bow down to their gods, nor serve them, nor do after their works: but thou shalt utterly overthrow them, and quite break down their images. (v.24)
Thou shalt make no covenant with them, nor with their gods. (v.32)
Good point, so he is saying other gods exist but you have to be in my gang.
So if you believe in God you must also believe in other gods as he tells you they exist. It's all a little strange.
Other gods exist but only in the minds of mankind. Sure there have been plenty of gods through the ages as civilisations have come and gone...Greek, Roman, Egyptian... But if you spent 6 long days making everything out of nothing wouldnt you be a bit pissed if for instances some of your creation started bowing down before cows instead of eating them?
