The reason that I am only listing resources for Celtic deities is because that is all that I am really familiar with. Sorry.
A good book on Celtic deities is "The Gods of the Celts" by Miranda Green

For internet sites:
Gaulish (Celtic) deities: http://www.geocities.com/nemetoneponas/deities.html
Gallic deities: http://www.timelessmyths.com/celtic/gallic.html
Gods and Goddesses of Roman Britain: http://www.romanbritain.freeserve.co.uk/Rbgods.htm
Indo-European deities: http://www.druidry.org/obod/deities/
An excellent site for researching Celtic mythology and poetry: http://www.maryjones.us/
Proto-Indo-European deities: http://www.ceisiwrserith.com/pier/deities.htm

Good articles on specific deities:
There are multiple articles on this page that you may find interesting: http://snlemons.iweb.bsu.edu/otherCelt.htm
Epona: http://epona.net/
Kernunnos: http://www.kernunnos.com/deities/cernunnos/texts.html

What kinds of Gods and Goddesses? Greek, Egyptian, Roman?

Try pantheon.org, or pantheon.com, I forget which...they have everything on Greco-Roman mythology.

Check out the library. I know the library i work at, there are alot of books about that-and books have more reliable information when it comes to things like that

Personally I wouldn't trust much off the Internet. Use a good library like a University library if you have one near you. Good Luck.

wikipedia.org would be a good place to start. They will have many different Gods and Goddesses and plenty of info for you!

You might look at Edith Hamilton's Mythology or Bullfinches Mythology. They aren't on the net, but they are excellent sources.

Go a step further and parallel them to the interaction of elements from big bang on ; )

Good luck with that.
I'm a Christian, but I'd be interested in reading your book when it comes out.

Well, there is only one 'true fact' about gods, and that is that they are mythological... they do not exist.
