The nasuverse alludes to there being roughly 3 types of "gods": the "True" God, mortal gods, and fictional gods.

While the Holy Grails being recovered are not the genuine articles, they are based on a true model. "The cup that was touched by the blood of Christ". This strongly implies that the God of Abraham is the true god of the universe. This is further reinforced by Solomon and Jeanne retaining their faiths and blessings post mortem.

Mortal gods are simply powerful reality bending entities that lived as flesh and blood and can succumb to death. They really on "mystery" to perform powerful acts of magic. Ishtar and Artemis are some examples.

Fictional gods are individuals that started out as idols but became sentient due to people's systematic faith being put into them. This is most likely the catagory Angra Mainyu fits into. The man we see is the host of the god, but the god itself wants to be made real via the Holy Grail.
