I don't think anyone's ever accused Mormons of worshiping "many gods" (except when we point out that you believe The Father, Son, and Holy Spirit are three distinct beings who only hold the job description "God" as a collective). But I have to give you credit, for you have no problem admitting the existence of multiple gods in the LDS cosmology, a detail that many of your fellow Mormons clam up about when asked.
The main idea of my post was to show how the use of a well chosen word can lead others to think you are saying something you did not say, while wanting them to have that idea anyway.
