Nah, there's a bunch of very popular religions which probably are derived from Canaanite worship of El about 2500 years ago and these focus on that "Creation God" figure so much that their surviving text is today read by believers as saying there aren't any other Gods even though if you look at it frankly sure seems like it's actually ranking El as merely the most important of many Gods. Thus it's easy to see why you might think that, but plenty of religions don't have any personal Gods at all, or don't think you can talk to God.

There are non-theistic religions and most theistic religions aren’t specifically sky-old-guy monotheist.

(Although despite Buddhism’s non-theistic reputation, the most popular kinds do have Pure-Land-old-guy worship)

My Invisible Underground Unicorn (rainbow poop be beneath her) disagrees.

Doesnt't that... make the situation all the more ridiculous?
