There is only one God, by definition. If there were many, they wouldn't be God, by an obvious contradiction (since God is the greatest conceivable being, there is only one).

Thats your definition of God, the definition that is made by people like you who want to make claim for your God. Stop making such obvious circular logic please. You know in the history on mankind there are more than 3000 definitions of God. If you born in old Greece 2000 years ago, your definition of God would be different from now. If you are born in Thai or India, your God will again be different. What you are currently believing just depends on your geographic location.

If I were born in Greece 2000 years ago I would have read Plato and know the same definition anyone interested in theology has known since the Sumerians. You would have read Plato too and we wouldn't be having this conversation.
Please stop spreading this misconception that religions are somehow completely different and incompatible, they are simply different paths to the same goal, this has been acknowledged by saints and scholars across the world for as long as there has been religion. We might disagree on some particulars but the core concept and idea of the absolute reality is the same.
