In the multiverse, an infinite number.
There is the "God" that is all-powerful, all-knowing, all-present.
Then there is everything that could exist that has to for this God to be "all-powerful".
In the same way that you wouldn't say that "God is all-knowing and therefore 'could' know anything, but rather that God KNOWS EVERYTHING" you would have to say also, not that "Got 'could' do anything, but that God 'DOES' EVERYTHING".
Everything that could be, is. All gods that could possibly exist if anywhere, at anytime, in any way, there was ever an all-powerful being, as this would make them automatically everywhere, everywhen, simultaneously (all-powerful, remember?)
All gods would automatically be expressions of this God's very nature, not something he "does". Of course, so would pink Easter Bunnies and Santa Claus, as well as every other possibility one could imagine.
Based on what our physicists are starting to think about the universe, it isn't so farfetched.
Having experienced it first hand, I'm waiting for them to catch up. (Nope, never taken drugs, had a cat-scan -negative- and had a psychologist kick me out after sharing my experience with him as he said that he could only find good effects from my "experiencing God directly", and if it was a psychotic break, he wished all his patients had such breaks.
Never had a mission, a message, a cult, or a book. Just something odd that happened when I was seventeen, experiencing everything, everywhere, everywhen, simultaneously for a roughly four hour period (timeless to me). Strange, huh?

There are thousands on this planet alone, I don't know about the rest of the universe. There are quite a few in the Bible. Moses' god got a bit thingy about it and said he was the boss and Moses should have no other gods before him. There are many gods around today. My mother, a good Christian woman, had a very different god from that of Dubya Bush or Ayatollah Khomeini or many of the god-botherers I see on here. They all say they worship the same god but he seems to be an all purpose god, supporting everyone against everyone else. Either this god has a huge multiple personality disorder or there are many different gods.
I rather like the Norse gods myself but don't believe in any of them.

Who knows, since we really don't know how big the universe is. But God showed his creations to Enoch and Moses and they marveled at them. They felt like a little ant compared to all the creations that God has made. We will hopefully find our more after we die. But the LDS church has additional scriptures called the Pearl of Great Price that goes into more detail about the Creation and who was involved. You can buy a book that has the Book of Mormon and Pearl of Great Price all together in one book. It is pretty fascinating and answers alot of questions. The Pearl of Great Price is an account of God's interaction with Moses on the subject.

I geuss that would depend on your definition of "God".
I'd say there is probably only one who is the creator of the universe, but no telling who or what that is for now. I wouldn't be suprised or disapointed at whatever this turns out to be.
If your definiton is a loose one, the number might climb. I suspect their are many civilizations out there with powers beyond what you imagine God to be capible of.
The less you "know" the more you'll learn.

According to all ancient writings of Egypt, there are "14," including the "fallen one."
Jesus, while on earth, "taught" this faith, though the deceivers have pegged his wisdom as that of Judaism, but it is why Jesus chose 12 Apostles, one to represent each God under the Lord of Creation, or the "Father" of the faith he taught and gave ancient Egypt. The names of the "Gods" are there for all to find.........
Even Jesus said of the 12 Apostles he chose that one was a "devil" (Judas). In ancient Egyptian faith one of the "Gods" WAS a devil. His name was Seth. In faith the Lord of Creation condemned him to rule the darkness and roam the deserts of earth FOR he was a son of KEB, a man the Lord created out of the ground, so was damned for murdering his brother, Osiris ..........

As far as our spiritual progression is concerned - one. Could there be others? We don't know, but what we do know is that our Father in Heaven wants us to love him with all our might, mind and strength and have no other Gods before him.
