The idea that gods are just extremely powerful (and fallible) constructs is one I think FR and Greyhawk do pretty well.FR in particular has the whole Overgod concept that adds an extra layer of mystery that kind of points to gods just being really powerful mortals (are you really a god if you can die?)</blockquote>
