I liked Valar in Silmarillion a lot.
I love many of Erikson's gods: Hood, Rope, Shadowthrone, Togg and Fandaray, Krull.
Some of the Discword ones. I really like Lady, Bilious and Om.
Gaiman's Endless were pretty cool, especially Death, Dream and Destiny. And I liked to dislike Anansi.
I also have a weak spot for Elenium's Aphrael. But I have weakness for little girl with awesome powers - I also like Devera from Vlad Talo's books.

Evolution, just like gravity, works even if you don't believe in it.

I'm definitely a fan of the Valar. Partial to the Dragonlance pantheon, too.

I'm afraid I have to take issue with you grouping the Endless among the gods.
