Silly Monotheists, Polytheism is the only thing that makes sense

Let me reply by saying just how offended I am that you neglected to fully respond to any of the points that I raised with my opening argument. You make some grave assumptions, such that the universe, which is infinite, is some how too small for there to be more than one supreme being. You also make the assumption that a supreme being must be almighty, or at the very least all powerful. Risky assumptions considering that scientifically we've discovered certain constants and specific rules which seem to apply themselves completely across the Universe. So, now you have the risky task of defining how exactly an all powerful being interacts with a Universe with serious limitations on matter. Thank you for noting the large number of individuals who practice monotheism, however I can also note the large number of people that once believed that the Earth was the center of the Universe, and that the sun orbited around the earth. Or, better yet that the planet was flat in spite of many observations that could be made at the time to propose that it was spherical in nature. You also assume that gods from a Polytheistic religion would be interested, or even capable of obliterating the people of Earth. It's very obvious from many stories of interaction with humans and polytheistic gods that polyteistic gods rely more on free will than any others. In fact, most stories involve a god persuading or convincing a mortal to do something, rather than commanding or mandating. The gods promise material things, instead of some sort of lofty eternity which would be spent worshiping at the feet of a monotheistic god. Unless, of course, the Christian 'heaven' is some how a contradiction to the piety that is suggested by the seven deadly sins, and the seven heavenly virtues. Simply put, you assume that Zeus is vengeful, and that so is Ares. Truly, if they were gods themselves, they would still be influencing our world, whether or not we sacrificed to them. All of the conflict that has marked Christian history has more to do with the interests of Ares than to do with the kind and loving God of the Christians. It would hardly be the first time that the Greek Pantheon interacted with humanity indirectly. I don't think it does make more sense to have one god isntead of a dozen. I noted this in my opening argument, so I'll restate it again. If there's only one god, then you're stuck with a god that's full of contradictions. God of peace, god of war, god of love, god of hate, god of charity, god of greed. All of these things must be manifested into one being. To be honest, under most truly polytheistic religions there is no god of true evil. The God of evil was an invention of Persian Zoroastrianism as a contradiction to the god of true good. The Persians ruled over the Canaan, and the area traditionally known as Israel or Palestine. It's very likely the Hebrews picked up their idea of Satan versus God. You are also making broad assumptions of what defines a God. You're limiting the process of creating a god to be the sole trait of being a god. However, Christianity nor Islam state the creation of there God, therefore they must not actually be Gods, and what ever created the Islamic/Christian God is really God. So... Yeah, that argument really doesn't work against Polytheism. There is no true rule stating whether or not gods or goddesses are composed of a physical matter. If they are, they can be destroyed. There are many lengends about gods being destroyed. The only difference in your argument is that there's several gods instead of one god. Unless of course your monotheistic god wants to preside over a completely empty universe.
