Let me show you what is really stupid about all of this. Let's assume there is a "God", some sort of being. What do we know about it? Currently, nothing. But now, assume this bible is "the word of God." So now we have a book, which is dictated by this God, and I'll be generous and say it's entirely accurate as dictated.
Now what do we know about this God? We know that it claims to have created the universe. It claims to have made humans. We have no way of knowing if these claims are true. How do we know this being tells the truth? Because it tells you it tells the truth? That is stupid. You'd never accept anyone as a character witness to themself.
What else do we know about God now?
He is a terrible writer. He contradicts himself a lot, re tells stories in different ways for no apparent reason, and is really stupid. It doesn't know very much about the planet it claims to have created. In fact it gets plenty of stuff wrong that even a child knows today.
It is more evil than anything else, it has about every undesirable attribute you could imagine.
In conclusion, just because "God" wrote some stuff, that doesn't mean it's true. And if God is as described, he is less intelligent and less concerned with human wellbeing than most people alive today.
So I would not even consider worshipping it. We have no reason to think it's even around any more. I would carry on my life just as I am doing already.
If the bible is the word of "God" then God is a prick who I have no interest in associating with.
