In Christianity, Jesus Christ is believed to be the Son of God and the second person of the Holy Trinity. He was born in Bethlehem to the Virgin Mary and lived a life of teaching, healing, and performing miracles. Christians believe that he was crucified, died, and was resurrected to atone for humanity's sins. His teachings are recorded in the New Testament of the Bible, and his life and resurrection are considered the foundational events of the Christian faith. Acts 4:10-12
Be it known unto you all, and to all the people of Israel, that by the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, whom ye crucified, whom God raised from the dead, even by him doth this man stand here before you whole. This is the stone which was set at nought of you builders, which is become the head of the corner. Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved.
No one has understood the infinite kindness and grace of the Lord Jesus Christ. It's impossible to understand it until the end of the Earth and forever. On Earth, only Leonardo da Vinci has known about the grace of the Lord Jesus Christ.
Jesus has always been there for us throughout our lives and is still here in our hearts, to stay forever. He has always forgiven us each and every time we have sinned and has also granted us eternal life rather than death. We all should love one another as Jesus has always loved us. He is the best and will forever be. Amen.
God was the best, God is the best, and He's the only one that's alive and real. He's never left us. He sent His one and only Son, Jesus, to die for us. The other "gods" have brand names. They're not real. God has never died, never aged, and will never leave us, even when we turn our backs on Him.
Ganesha is another major deity in the Hindu pantheon, widely revered as the remover of obstacles and the god of wisdom, prosperity, and good fortune. He is usually depicted as having an elephant's head and a human body, with four arms. Ganesha is commonly invoked at the beginning of new ventures, and he has a wide following not only in India but also among Hindus worldwide. His birth is celebrated annually during the festival of Ganesh Chaturthi. The Literal God of Gods, the First God, the Powerhouse of the Hindu Pantheon, a God who removes obstacles, the Ultimate Reality.

He is the remover of obstacles.
Remember him and nothing will stop you.
He is the child of the Supreme Lord, just like Jesus.
Om Namo Ganapataye!
He will make you successful in the work you do by overcoming all difficulties.
Ganesha is the eldest son of God Shiva. He has four powerful god-brothers: Karthikeya, Abishek, Lavikram, and Criprathran. Unlike his brothers Karthikeya and Lavikram, he is mostly seen with God Shiva, while Karthikeya and Lavikram listen to what God Vishnu says.
In Hinduism, Shiva is one of the principal deities, part of the Holy Trinity along with Brahma and Vishnu. Shiva is often referred to as the "destroyer" within the trinity, responsible for the dissolution of the universe. He is usually depicted with a third eye, a snake around his neck, and a trishula (trident). Devotees worship Shiva through various forms and rituals, including the annual festival of Shivratri. The Infinity, the God who gave birth to the God of Gods, the Literal god who controls demons, and the Central Figure of Shaivism, with a monstrosity of a third eye.
Om Namashivaya!
I think Shiva is the most powerful. How can Ganesh be stronger than Shiva? Because Shiva is the destroyer, how can a destroyer be defeated by his son?
He is the oldest God, the most powerful among gods in the whole world, and also the kindest, most loving, caring, and hardworking. He has a real love and connection to humans. He can be easily worshipped by all, and anybody can worship him. Nothing is sinful or impure for him. All is in his name.
Om Namah Shivaay!
He is the one who created Lord Ganesha, but no one created him. He explains the reason Ganesha entered the world as Sri Selva Vinayagar to help people and save them from great evil. He is the most powerful God in Hinduism.
In Greek mythology, Athena is the goddess of wisdom, courage, and warfare. She is often depicted wearing a helmet and holding a shield and a spear. According to myth, Athena was born fully grown and armored from the forehead of her father, Zeus. She is considered a virgin goddess and is the patron deity of Athens, which was named in her honor. Her symbols include the owl and the olive tree. She is even smarter than all the gods, and without her, I doubt there would even be such a thing as wisdom.
In Islam, Allah is the one and only God, the creator and sustainer of the universe. The concept of Allah in Islam is strictly monotheistic, and it is considered blasphemous to associate partners with Him. Allah is merciful, compassionate, and just, according to Islamic belief, and He has revealed His will through various prophets, the final one being Muhammad. The Quran is believed to be the literal word of Allah as revealed to Muhammad. Allah is unique and singular. He is the Creator who is meant to be worshiped and obeyed. The Quran explains many beautiful names of Allah, which help us to know and understand Him better. Practicing Islam gives us a close relationship with the One and Only God: Allah.
While plenty of gods are listed as "the greatest god" within the same religion in many cases, this is the single most venerated One and Only God, with no doubt whatsoever.
In Islam, Allah is the unique, omnipotent, and only deity and creator of the universe. He is equivalent to God in other Abrahamic religions. According to Islamic belief, Allah is the most common word to represent God. Humble submission to His will, divine ordinances, and commandments is the pivot of the Muslim faith.
Allah is the one who created the world, the universe, and everything invisible and visible. There is no lord. I can destroy all the statues of Hindu gods with my RPG, but nobody can destroy Allah because He is one, and there is no equivalent to Him.

Zeus is a central figure in many Greek myths, known for both his wisdom and his sometimes problematic relationships with other gods and mortals. He is considered the father of many Greek gods and heroes, including Athena, Apollo, and Hercules. I like Zeus because he is a Greek god, and my family is from Cyprus.
Yeah, Jesus is cool and all, but can he shoot lightning? Didn't think so.
I love you, Zeus.

In Buddhism, the Buddha, also known as Siddhartha Gautama, is not considered a god but rather an enlightened individual. He was born into a royal family in what is now Nepal and abandoned his life of luxury to seek the end of suffering. After attaining enlightenment under the Bodhi tree, he spent the remainder of his life teaching the path to liberation from the cycle of birth and death. His teachings form the basis of Buddhism and are encapsulated in the Four Noble Truths and the Eightfold Path. Some Mahayana sects consider the Buddha to be a god. Likewise, some Vaishnava sects regard Him as an avatar of Vishnu. Besides that, I have seen Buddhists both online and in real life describe the Buddha as being "higher than God."
Please, learn about Buddhism before you vote Buddha as a god.
He is the king of the world.
Jai Buddha Guru.

Of course, I agree that Jesus Christ is also a god, but he didn't create the world. People have to remember that before Jesus Christ, ancients worshiped Lord Shiva, Lord Vishnu, and Lord Durga.
