Quote:An all-knowing God can read your mind, so why does he require you to demonstrate your faith by worshiping him?

I'll use this one the next time my wife asks me to go to church with her. The same question could also be asked about prayer. If God can read your mind and knows what you need, why is prayer necessary?

Unlike the relationship you have with your wife, God wants to hear from us, that's how relationships work.

Because it's not enough for god to know what you want. You have to beg him for it, too.

He's petty like that.

Scriptures say that begging has no place in prayer, faith is what God desires, faith is the opposite of begging you know.
God loves those who believe and those who do not and the same goes for me, you have no choice in this matter. That puts the matter of total free will to rest.
