Then why do you have to bow to him? Why do you have to sing songs for him? Why do you even have to say ridiculously long prayers to him?

If a god was infinitely more powerful than everything else, it wouldn't give one single damn about people bowing or singing songs to him.

It's purely for the benefit of people taking part in whatever form of praise they think is appropriate for supreme power and creator of all things and ultimate reason for your existence. People like to show a bit of heartfelt gratitude and humility you know. Alien concept though it may be for you, nothing greater than your own self eh?
Come all ye faithful joyful and triumphant.
