It does seem that way. I really don't get it.
There's always an assumption it seems when someone is trying to convince me god exists. They think his existence automatically leads to me demeaning myself in some act of toadying around on the floor and begging for mercy/righteousness/salvation/whatever.
No thanks. I have a bit more self respect than that.
If some mental case holds a gun to my head, sure I'll pretend to worship them, or do whatever they want, until I can get away from them. But here there is no gun, and if the god exists it's a frickin god, so the idea it would be impressed with me pretending to worship it is a bit dumb.
