That seems more like Gaiman’s Vertigo universe, where every god ever believed in has a physical reality fueled by that belief. It’s not a real-life belief, as far as I know, and it’s certainly not what is meant by “pantheism”.
Pantheism is the worship of the universe as a God. Most of us here in Less Wrong don’t worship the universe, we want to bind it to our service instead.
I didn’t downvote you, but your usage of the term “pantheism” seems to be inconsistent with its standard meaning.
Hmm, you’re right, I was thinking that the accepted definition of pantheism was “All Gods exist”.
