Humanity always serves, even the smallest of actions cannot escape the domain of the action being a type of service; the only dynamic part in the equation is the side which the service if offered for, ranging from ourselves to include others, anything a human do can be immediately identified as a service.
Being dependent creatures, humanity can never escape the fact that they are served. By studying the environment, every reason that keeps humans alive is actually a service given to them; either it's a case of atheism or theism, we can say "earth supports human life" or say "God is blessing humanity to survive".
Despite the person's belief, humanity is being served, and our actions are all services.
The revolution in this concept, is an entity that doesn't get served. If a certain entity exists, it never gets served, then we face a crack in the concept we define humans with : (a human always serves & get served); but that entity would be an entity that (always serves and never gets served).
From that point; the concept of God originates. Either believed in, or not, we can't define humans with another concept than the above : humans are dependent on services given by other entity.
That is one gnarly word salad, bro. Your premises are not true, and your conclusions do not follow from them even if they were true.
Not every action has to be force-fitted into being defined as a "service" to something or someone, and there is no evidence that reality was created to serve humans (or created at all). Rather, evidence indicates that we evolved to take advantage of environmental conditions, which is why our environment seems to contain so many things that are useful to us.
Even if we decided to grant that humans can be defined simply as entities who are "dependent on services given by other entity," that still doesn't necessitate the existence of a divine service-provider.
Verbatim from the mouth of Jesus (retranslated from a retranslation of a copy of a copy):
"Do not judge, or you too will be judged. For in the same way you judge others, you too will be judged, and with the measure you use, it will be measured to you. How can you see your brother's head up his ass when your own vision is darkened by your head being even further up your ass? How can you say to your brother, 'Get your head out of your ass,' when all the time your head is up your own ass? You hypocrite! First take your head out of your own ass, and then you will see clearly who has his head up his ass and who doesn't." Matthew 7:1-5 (also Luke 6: 41-42)
