How many "gods" are worshipped today ?

Question

List by religion please

Answer 1

It would be nearly impossible to list the number of gods that are worshipped due to the sheer number. Some of the mid-eastern and african pantheons include thousands of so-called dieties in the different religious sects.

As a Christian, of course, I believe that all 'god's' other than Jehovah (i.e., the Trinity) are only so-called gods.

But, in strict adherence to your question, here are just a few of the dieties venerated throughout the world (please note that this is just a microcosm of those actually worshipped and that many dieties are known by multiple names).

And yet in spite of ways frequently we supply an evidence for the substitute between honor and worship, there are although individuals who refuse to hearken to us. i've got obtained a concept approximately why that's so: the two some Protestants have an substantial listening to loss in the different case they are discomfort from some style of looking out disability. a minimum of that's the charitable explaination, as nicely. The third threat is plenty much less style than the universal 2. through fact the previous KMOX disk jockey Jim White used to show, "lack of know-how is fixable, although stupidity is incessantly."

Answer 7

Actually, it's a big misconception that there are many Gods worshipped. It is actually many "spirits" that they worship. If you were to really know other people's religions, you would find that they all worship one God, whether they have different names or are described differently. So, to answer your question, one God.

Answer 8

In Hinduism, it has been estimated over 30,000 major gods and somewhere around 3 million local/regional gods.

Answer 9

Hard to tell. Some worship idols, which can be anything... even sports (if it takes away from God).

Answer 10

i cannot tell you all religions that their are, but i can tell you that there are over a thousand gods and over three hundred higher powers registered as religions. there are many more in tribes of third world countries. i hope this helps.

Answer 11

1 = satan
that is all that is worshipped today
witness the events of the world
the jew god is killing
the christian god is killing
the islam god is killing
the budah god is killing
so if all the gods are practicing murder they are all under control of satan
so if anyone can send me an example of a god that isn't killing right now that would be great !!!
