For atheists: Which are your favourite gods?

I always favored the American Indian's way of worship even though the white devil came along and killed all their gods.
 
I am fond of Fukurokuju, one of the Seven Lucky Gods of Japan. He is the god of happiness, wisdom, and longevity. I often give netsuke in his image to elder friends/family to wish them a long and happy life.

There's also Hotei (aka 'The Laughing Buddha'), who aside from Fuku, is probably the coolest looking deity on the planet. Typically represented in gold, it is an Asian custom to rub his fat belly for good luck. There's something about a short, bald, obese god walking around with his belly sticking out that just makes me smile.

Do you have a favourite god?

LOL - Buddha is not a God or a deity.

Personally: I don't like the concept of a God/deity/supreme governing being . . . Myths are interesting - but no 'favorites' - they're all pretty petty and banal, self serving and selfish.
