God for dummies

I was thinking today as to why Hinduism believes in so many Gods...a few thoughts

• Religion for dummies: It's hard to comprehend something that does not have form. Hence so many different statues. It's like explaining with an example. So that even thick people can easily understand and relate to the concept of God.
• Departmentalised approach: Not just that, Hinduism also has a separate God for each cause, like, for education it's Ganapati, Saraswati. For wealth its Lakshmi, Kuber etc. Having a hierarchy makes dealing with customer queries easier, that's corporate God! :)
• Setting them apart: To set the Gods apart from people, each of them have some kind of abnormality; elephant head in case of Ganapati, snakes around neck for Shankar, four faces to Brahma...and many more.
