It's not about belief. It's about something called EVIDENCE (you should
google it sometime).
And in the case of gods, a complete LACK of EVIDENCE.
Case dismissed.

Xtian: < 50% of population.
Hindu: < 50% of world population,
Islam: < 50% of population.

Which other gods?
Come to think of it, which god are you proposing as the one true god?
You should know the Asgaard pantheon is the the true way and all others
