So I got in trouble

[Esquilax]

There is one major difference between the gods you mention and the God of the bible. We don't discuss them or worship them anymore. They are dead. Or is it because they are dead we do not discuss them anymore? The God of the bible has remained revelant for 5000 years for one reason. People know He is alive because He connects with them, not because the bible said so. What do you think people did for the thousands of years where they did not have personal access to the bible?

I see: and has the popularity of an idea always determined its truth value, or just when it's convenient to you?

Hypothetical: In ten thousand years' time, christianity is just as dead as those past religions. You go there in a time machine. Do you then conclude, as you have with these past gods, that your god must not be real as he's ceased to be worshiped, or do you continue to believe?

If it's the former, there's clearly no factual basis to your worship now, just popularity. If it's the latter, you've discarded your own argument and fallen victim to special pleading.
