I'm not sure if Drew has addressed this point:
I don't give a monkeys if your God or any God exists, I'll continue to live my life exactly as I do now. I'm not grovelling to anyone, especially not someone demanding it of me or holding my happiness hostage. I try every day to be the best person I can be, to look after those around me and do my bit to make the world better. If God would rather I spent some of that time kissing his ass, he can forget it.
If a crazy person with a gun was in my face and demanded worship, sure, I'd pretend to worship him until I had the opportunity to get away from him.
But there's no gun in my face from God. Not even a toy gun. Next time you talk to him, ask him if he wants to be friends with atheists, to come see us and have a chat. Then we could have a sensible relationship with him. But I don't do long distance relationships with people who refuse to demonstrate they are even getting my letters.
