Why would God want our gratitude or worship? This is something I've never understood. What does he get out of it? Is the almighty creator of the universe so insecure that he needs to worship and adulation of beings lesser than him?
I took part in creating my kids. I don't want their worship. I appreciate their love and gratitude, but do not feel that it is something that is owed to me.
The christian god is kind of like Donald Trump. He just wants you to slowly drink the kool-aid.
