If there is a creator, so what?

[Whateverist]

I thought I'd bring this back as it's a question I'm asking all the time of theists and I'm getting no satisfactory answers. Some people will write pages and pages of stuff trying to establish the existence of "God", but can't/won't spare a few words to tell me why I should give the first fuck about any of it.

Why should I care guys? I still haven't heard anything persuasive.

Well, let's start with a real basic and simple reason.

If it's true that god exists, then you should care about it in the same way you care about anything else you hold to be true.

Caring about truth (or at least as close as we may come to truth) seems to be something you do a lot. Why not start there?

Yeah I guess I'd care to know it .. as you say .. at least in the sense of wanting to know truly how things stand.  

I think what everyone is reacting to is the idea that we'd want to behave in ways prescribed by the bible if it were known a creator god were real.  You haven't specified what if any link there might be between a creator God's existence and the degree to which any of the Christian mythology being its accurate reflection.  

But if we go down the road of what if everything your lot believes is a exactly right what would we do?  Let's just say we'd cross that river when we get to it.  It's no where in sight now.  Whether one would comply with any 'commandments' when one is free to do otherwise is still an open question.
