Worth noting, too, that the last product WotC released which referenced clearly real world deities (as opposed to the vague allusiona in Tyr and other FR deities, or Bahumet & Tiamat) was Spelljammer, over 3 years ago now.

In the last few years one of my family members became a Hellenic neopagan, my nextdoor neighbors are self identified Heathens and I went on a few dates with a Kemeticist, and I always thought it was weird that I could fight and kill their gods but I couldn't put the boots to Jesus Christ.

Then again I'm a SubGenius so I'd approve if they let me fight and kill J. R. "Bob" Dobbs.

Deities & Demigods had the Hindu pantheon, which....um...wow.

Had been me, I should have not touched living religions back in the day (though, inactive religions such as the Greek and Egyptian gods would still have been an issue today, lol).
