Can you imagine what form that evidence would be? Pure speculation welcome. What would be the nature of that evidence? For example if there was video of a man praying and then fire came down from the sky and burned up his offering the video would come into question. Or what if you were there? That would probably cinch it for me but then again, I have seen some magnificent magic acts.

It comes down to forming a hypothesis and testing it again and again to get repeatable results. There are certain qualities God is claimed to have, such as intercessory prayer which failed it's experiment with teh Templeton foundation.

Also, believing and worshiping are two different things. If God was absolutely proven, he'd have a lot to answer for since if he is in fact the god of the bible, he's an immoral bastard.
