>not realizing that Gods and Goddesses embody certain powers within the universe
Is this the kind of dribble you believe in? False deities. What powers do they have? Who are these so-called "gods" and "goddesses"?
>not realizing the underlying monism of worshipping many Deities
The Noble Qur'aan 39:3
>Surely, the religion (i.e. the worship and the obedience) is for Allah only. And those who take Auliya' (protectors and helpers) besides Him (say): "We worship them only that they may bring us near to Allah." Verily, Allah will judge between them concerning that wherein they differ. Truly, Allah guides not him who is a liar, and a disbeliever.
Your comment is null and void.

>And We have fastened every man's deeds to his neck, and on the Day of Resurrection, We shall bring out for him a book which he will find wide open. (It will be said to him): "Read your book. You yourself are sufficient as a reckoner against you this Day."
The Noble Qur'aan 17:18-19
>Whoever wishes for the quick-passing (transitory enjoyment of this world), We readily grant him what We will for whom We like. Then, afterwards, We have appointed for him Hell, he will burn therein disgraced and rejected, ( far away from Allah's Mercy). And whoever desires the Hereafter and strives for it, with the necessary effort due for it (i.e. do righteous deeds of Allah's Obedience) while he is a believer (in the Oneness of Allah Islamic Monotheism), then such are the ones whose striving shall be appreciated, thanked and rewarded (by Allah).
>thinking that said entity created the universe
The Noble Qur'aan 2:21

The Noble Qur'aan 6:1

>being this indoctrinated
The Noble Qur'aan 2:212
>Beautified is the life of this world for those who disbelieve, and they mock at those who believe. But those who obey Allah's Orders and keep away from what He has forbidden, will be above them on the Day of Resurrection. And Allah gives (of His Bounty, Blessings, Favours, Honours, etc. on the Day of Resurrection) to whom He wills without limit.
The Noble Qur'aan 6:5

The Noble Qur'aan 6:10
>And indeed (many) Messengers were mocked before you, but their scoffers were surrounded by the very thing that they used to mock at.
The Noble Qur'aan 9:64
>The hypocrites fear lest a Surah (chapter of the Quran) should be revealed about them, showing them what is in their hearts. Say: "(Go ahead and) mock! But certainly Allah will bring to light all that you fear."
The Noble Qur'aan 11:8
>And if We delay the torment for them till a determined term, they are sure to say, "What keeps it back?" Verily, on the day it reaches them, nothing will turn it away from them, and they will be surrounded by (fall in) that at which they used to mock!
The Noble Qur'aan 26:6
>So they have indeed denied (the truth - this Quran), then the news of what they mocked at, will come to them.
The Noble Qur'aan 37:14
>And when they see an Ayah (a sign, a proof, or an evidence) from Allah, they mock at it.

Yes, what is the matter with you?
The Noble Qur'aan 4:118-120
>Allah cursed him. And he [Shaitan (Satan)] said: "I will take an appointed portion of your slaves; Verily, I will mislead them, and surely, I will arouse in them false desires; and certainly, I will order them to slit the ears of cattle, and indeed I will order them to change the nature created by Allah." And whoever takes Shaitan (Satan) as a Wali (protector or helper) instead of Allah, has surely suffered a manifest loss. He [Shaitan (Satan)] makes promises to them, and arouses in them false desires; and Shaitan's (Satan) promises are nothing but deceptions.
As for me:
The Noble Qur'aan 15:94
>Therefore proclaim openly that which you are commanded, and turn away from Al-Mushrikun (polytheists, idolaters, and disbelievers, etc.)
The Noble Qur'aan 21:98-99
>Certainly! You (disbelievers) and that which you are worshipping now besides Allah, are (but) fuel for Hell! (Surely), you will enter it. Had these (idols, etc.) been aliha (gods), they would not have entered there (Hell), and all of them will abide therein.
