God of Shinobi: Why Choose Only One?
There is no contradiction in the manga if there is more than one God of Shinobi, either it be Rikudo, Hashirama or Hiruzen, they were called as such because they were "hailed" to be so. Rikudou was hailed with the title because he defeated the Juubi and discovered/created the art of ninjutsu, Hashirama because he founded the Leaf and defeated Madara and Hiruzen because of his long reign and mastery of all of Konoha's jutsus. They were not deified, they were glorified for their achievements, posterity marks itself in the future, even Naruto would probably be called The God of Shinobi one day, so it's pointless to argue who is the true holder of the title, because it's not one but many.
