Believing in a god, if one exists, isn't a big deal to me. We believe in lots of things - does the evidence of these things violate our 'free will'*? Unless you mean we'd be compelled to do what this god demands. In regards to the Christian god it seems to me that, at least in principle, it's not a given that knowing the Christian god exists necessitates servitude, as Satan clearly has no problem disobeying God. Or maybe it's one rule for the angels and another for humans. Might as well speculate on the number of bathrooms the Death Star has.

*I don't believe in free will anyway (or gods for that matter!)
