It would take the type of evidence that could leave no doubt whatsoever to the deities existence. Of course, just because a deity exists does not mean it is worthy of worship.

And of course, if a creator does exist, why would it require our worship? If it's capable of making life why does it require us to believe in it without even showing itself to be real? Is it so lonely that it wants people to praise it, yet uncomfortable with showing itself to us?
