But if he were merely a part of MY personal imagination, He would just be whatever I would have wanted Him to be. I wouldn't be part of a larger faith. I wouldn't read about Catholic teaching and Natural Law in an attempt to learn more about God. God would just be whatever I came up with in my head.

That would be true if your imagination was in no way influenced by your culture.  But it is.

Here's the thing about Christianity most of you simply do not understand. Christ dying on the cross makes it ok not to be a yes or a no on everything. When Christ died for us the bar that each person know a yes or n to everything was removed. Now the standard is come with all that you can understand. what you get wrong will be forgiven what you don't understand will be filled in. There is no set standard anymore just do you absolute best.

We ALL understand that this is what you believe.  What you can't see to grasp is that it is a ridiculous belief when you apply even a modicum of rational thought and critical analysis.  It all comes down to the fact that you believe because you want to, not because it makes sense.
"The last superstition of the human mind is the superstition that religion in itself is a good thing."  - Samuel Porter Putnam
