It depends what you mean. The Aztecs had any gods because they felt interconnected and at peace with nature. Everything that was significant in their lives was represented by a certain god or goddess. For example, their main diet consisted of corn/maize. And the maize god was Cinoteotl. Tonantzin was the equivlent to the virgen mary, Ometeotl was one of the equivalents of god, and so on.
