It's a bit of an 'If my auntie had balls she'd be my uncle' question, and it doesn't keep me up all night or anything. But I wonder what would have happened if I had inherited a God?
Likely you would do as most theist do and not believe in God but say you do out of tradition.

Neither actually;'to inherit' implies some choice,as one may refuse an inheritance. I had no such luxury.
Who denied you that choice?

As it should. It shows better morals than the other Gods on the table.
You can actually question and challenge that God and have an effect on him.
