What Would Your God Do Without You?
Christians, Krishna devotees, Muslims! What would your god do without you? Fade into non-existence?

Sit in the middle of a field, in the foetal position, saying "I exist. I exist."
Check out a Terry Pratchett book called "Small Gods".

Considering that fictional concepts are solely reliant on the imagination of the believer, the god(s) can no more do anything of their own volition than a puppet without its master.

Apparently destroy everything. Because the god of love has a really bad temper, and doesn't know how to solve problems without killing or breaking something.

Or, drum up a small army and confront the newer gods ala Gaiman?

I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

He'd continue being the ultimate noodly goodness that can maximally exist ever, only I get to be with it while it does it.
