Or ten? Or one-thousand?
Why or why not?

It all depend on what God means. If everything is a part of god, then having more than one wouldn't make sense. If there is a god for a particular thing like a god of death/ god of life, god of good, god of bad. Sure why not have a god for everything. If god is a being of all knowledge and never makes mistakes, then having two of that would be the exact same as having one. Their decisions would be the same and the actions would not differ in any way so they would be the same. Only by definition can there be more than one being. Or maybe there is no gods.

the word Eloiheim is definity absolutely, the plural form of God.
but there are 3 in heaven that rule and reign over this Earth and its heaven.
yet, there are other earths and other heavens in this galaxy not to mention other galaxies.
I believe for every earth and heaven there is a throne of God and for everty throne there is another son of God and a different Saviour.
As it is described in the book of obadiah, there are many saviours on Mt Sion.
As jesus declared he has given power to men to become sons of God. So truly there is more than one son of God and more than one saviour.
However to us there is only JUST the 3 persons in the godhead that judge and rule over earth. but to US there is only God the Father who gave us jesus His Son to be redeemer and saviour.
so, your question is not absolutey, correctly asked in its hypothetical rhetoric.

Ok, it doesn't really apply.
Your guess is as good as anybody's.
I just hope there's no single one god who spent an infinite amount of time alone before creating the universe - that would drive anybody insane.

Thus saith the Lord the King of Israel, and his redeemer the Lord of hosts; I am the first, and I am the last; and beside me there is no God.

i think so. because if there is a "higher power" that has any influence on the workings of the universe, i don't see how such a powerful being could possibly need any help.

I like the idea of having 3.1416 gods.

Zero God is more likely than any.

IMNSHO, one God is just as likely as a thousand.
God (again IMO) is a creation of humankind to enable them to justify that which they do not understand.
