Some atheists like to argue their case by conflating the big G (God as the Creator of All) with little g's, meaning gods of legend, like Zeus and Apollo, and the myriad gods of pagan religions. These are all minor gods. Nobody claims they are the big G.
It is possible that plenty of "minor" gods actually exist, rather than being the stuff of legend. For what is a god but a being with greater powers than a human? And given the size and make-up of the universe, isn't it likely there are living entities, physical or not, with powers greater than humans? These would be like gods to us, just as we would seem like gods to beings less advanced than ourselves.
