And for the Atheists the Flying Spaghetti Monster, Invisible Pink Unicorn. . . and other "Mock" Gods do count a Pagan
(because they are not of the Abrahamic religions)
And for the other people :) lol
"Second Squirreling, Pangel, Me Thrice Baked. Etc."
Count as pagan Gods also ^_^

I like the Norse gods the most. Odin hung himself upside down from the tree of life and gave up an eye to gain knowledge which he passed on to humans. Tiw gave up one of his hands to trap a demigod wolf that was due to destroy the world.
The Norse gods have a human quality of bravery and sacrifice for the good of humanity. And they themselves knew there was a higher power over them named Allfather who created all things. These gods did not want to be worshiped, they just wanted to be honored.

Second Squirreling and Me Thrice Baked are certainly at the top of the list, but I'm going to have to go with Bacchus on this one. A god of sex and personal pleasure? Damned skippy.

Thor would be my favorite Pagan God.
As far as mock gods go, the Magic Puppies are hard to beat.
And finally for gods on R&S: Thrice Baked the Coookie Goddess.

Lillith - She is the archetypal Unshackled Woman who refuses to be controlled. Lillith passionately claims her personal power, stands firm on her convictions, and is driven by an internal motive. She was considered a Divine Lady in Sumerian texts. She is also referred to as Handmaiden to the Goddess Inanna and is woven into her mythology and the story of the sacred huluppu tree, or the Tree of Life. She is a largely misunderstood archetype who has been called Poetess of Darkness, Imp of Impetuosity, and Occasional Serpent of Seduction. Lillith is the personification of the restless sea. She is deeply committed to her personal freedom and keeps her moral strength alive.

Go! Went! Gone! with the Winds!!!
We Muslims do not believe in any immaginary God or Goddess created by pagans Semities, Sythians, Aryan or White Huns.
There is no God but one God who has No Name, No Shape, No Likeness! This is a simple criteria to distinguish a True God and a False God!
Read 4 line defination of God.(Al-QURAN; Sura Ikhlas; Ch. 112:01-04). The NAME told to Moses in Torah " I AM WHAT I AM ".- Means NO NAME!
An Immaginary Gods must have a NAME...!!!
Mythological deity is an human assumption having no evidence of existance! Hence must have a name!!
European Gods:
Thorr -God of Thunder/destruction. Found in Iceland.
FSM - A flying God of Sea Pirates in Europe.
Zeus -A Greek God - The king of all Gods. Found in Grece and in its colonies (Syria).
Babylon & Assuryan Gods:
BAAL, Ayzuz, Ashtaret etc. These Gods were attributed to the highest degree of powers among all other Gods. But..all Gods vanished with their cultures & societies! The realm of myths is vanished! Hence only Names are found in history.
We never discuss these Gods... just use them as a reference??
The Almighty God - the lord of universe wins the hearts and minds of believers and non-believers too!!
Why we discuss Him again and again if He does not exist???
Surely! there is only one God - The Almighty Lord of universe, who sent 124,000 prophets ( Adam to Abraham, Moses, Jesus and finally prophet Muhammad; peace be upon all) as undenyable witness for the humanity.
We Muslims believe in all prophets of God and their Miracles seen by the believer & non-believers.
Do Un-believers have such witnessess???

DAGDA Earth and father god. Dagda possesses a bottomless cauldron of plenty and rules the seasons with the music of his harp. With his mighty club Dagda can slay nine men with a single blow, and with its small end he can bring them back to life. On the day of the New Year, Dagda mates with the raven goddess of the Morrigan who while making love straddles a river with one foot on each bank. A slightly comical figure.

Wait, are you claiming that all Hindu, Shinto, Zoroastrian and Native American gods are pagan as well based on the fact that they're not Abahamic? That's idiotic. Pagan religions are pre-Christian, non-Jewish/Islamic European and Middle Eastern religions like Ancient Greek, Roman, Germanic and Egyptian gods, as well as whatever gods wiccans, druids and other old saxon religions believed in.
I'd have to say that I prefer modern mythological representations of pagan gods rather than the original "designs".
