No. A creator is not automatically worthy of thanks. Any being that would create a world as messed up as this one deserves hatred and contempt. It could not possibly be worthy of thanks.
Oh I disagree. I'd rather have been born than not. Therefore thanks is in order. Continuous worshipful thanks no. But thanks.
If there is a god, I want to believe that there is a god. If there is not a god, I want to believe that there is no god.
