I pick Desna because she is goddess of 2 of my favorite things: dreams and outerspace.
Torag or Shelyn, or Brigh, or possibly an amalgamation of all three.
And let's throw Calistria in there just to make things interesting.
Abadar, Erastil and Sarenrae.
Cayden Cailean!
I feel like Haagenti really gets the struggle of the common people, y’know?

The afterlife is a massive scam. 'You' die as an entity when your life ends. Afterlife strips you down and turns you into the fabric of the plane. I'm not gonna waste my life suffering and sacrificing for the weak so I can go to Heaven and get f!&%ing processed. Gonna get my rewards while I'm here to enjoy them.
Asmodeus. Popular, powerful, has his own (awesome) country, Imp familiars are useful, lots of special rules and items.
Glory to the Prince of Darkness.
I've got a multi-way tie...
Pharasma.
"She doesn't care about me, and that suits me fine. A god should have bigger concerns."
Desna.
A goddess whose concern with travel gels nicely with my own inclinations, plus she's a night-associated deity who's out and out benevolent.
Pulura.
As a lifelong Alaskan, I have a lot of love for the aurora.
Ashava.
Just dings my trolley.

After doing some thinking, I would much rather worship Lamashtu if I lived on Golarion. Drive people I don't like crazy all day, then get messed up on Waters of Lamashtu mixed with wine, eat the freshest meat I can get my hands on, and have freaky sex with whoever (or whatever) holds still long enough all night. That sounds pretty good to my inner barbarian sociopath.
Blessed be the Mother!
Nethys. You just have to learn magic and do whatever you want with it.
Tsukiyo (especially now that Faiths of Golarion is out) really really speaks to me on pretty much every level.
As a natural born critic and nerd, I'd maybe have to go with Sivanah, as she's the only one who teaches advanced critical theory.
From Inner Sea Faiths; "Sivanah’s priests teach that each text has four levels of meaning: the literal or surface meaning, the symbolic meaning, the personal meaning an author brings to it, and the personal meaning a reader brings to it. Somewhere in the combination of these four layers lies truth."
Also, illusion is fun.
Chucaro, Kofusachi, Arshea and Calistra all seem like strong options too.
Edit for formatting.
My new favorite deity (from Faiths of Golarion) is Gruhastha, the former follower of Irori who is basically a patron of reading.

The first part's right . . . but Asmodeus is a scam artist too.

Gruhastha is called the Keeper as he keeps watch over Golarion until enough beings reach enlightenment, at which point the world would itself become part of Nirvana.
Well, here's a possible explanation for Golarion's disappearance. He must have gotten tired of waiting for enough people to reach enlightenment and accidentally leaned on the Merge button . . . .
