... and 12 times 9 is 108...

1^1 * 2^2 * 3^3 = 108

But, of course, this is only the number of names a god has in  
classical religions, where gods are perfect, eternal, immutable, etc.  
and hence need only account for the three spatial dimensions.

In a (morally?) relativistic religion, one must take into account the  
fourth dimension of time (don't forget the i for an i!), and gods  
then acquire myriads of extra names:

1^1 * 2^2 * 3^3 * 4i^4 = 27'648
