To put it another way, if God existed exactly as the Bible asserts, I would believe in him but I would never worship him.

Ah I see. Well, I personally would because I owe my life to him... as much as that would make me cringe. But I'm truly thankful for this bizarre occurrence that is my life, so I think I would have personal reasons for worshipping it.
