I am quite aware of the title YHVH. The title YHVH, translated from Hebrew (and more than likely pronounced "yah vay", NOT "yah-way" - you're a bit off kilter on that one...need more study perhaps), means God, exactly the same way that Allah means God. You also forgot to mentoion El-adonai (used almost exclusively by Abraham, Jacob, and Joseph), El-shadai, and for plurality, Elohim - the "Gods" of Genesis chapter 1.
As to the 10,000 religions, are you actually expecting anyone to believe that you listed all of the world's religions in your message??? How about:
Rastafarianism, hinduism, taoism, satanism, ekankar, and Druid (yes, it still exists as a religion) - just to name a few. In Hinduism alone, any god is accepted, and it has been estimated there are over 25,000 named gods in India.
Your assurance about Ancient Roman religion is pathetic (only because you claim to know something about it. Those who know very little about it and admit it are not nearly as pathetic). During the first century AD, and expecially during the reign of Nero, Caesar himself was declared "god".
You actually narrowed down 6,000 years of recorded Egyptian History to call the god "Netjer"??? What about 23 dynasties that rocked back and forth from one god to another? Ra and Hathor to name a couple. I could go on, but who would know what we are talking about anymore?
One more thing - where in heavens name did you get the idea that Christianity came out of the arabic world? It PREDATES it by 500 years! Christianity came out od the JEWISH world.
You have no idea what you are getting into, little boy. But please - do continue. I find it fun to smash a few bugs once in awhile.
