Would the atheist worship Yahweh if his existence was proven with science. Theist can input too, but I want to see what the atheist has to say.

You answer first.
Would you worship Zeus if science proved his existence?

No, I would not worship the Biblical God if his existence was proven, for one very simple reason:

He hasn't shown himself to be worthy of worship.

I'd hold him to the same ideology I have about that for real people too:

Authority can be granted, but respect always has to be earned.
So far, he hasn't done anything that I would consider worthy of having earned it.

Nope. Why would I? If that particular god existed it would not be worthy of anybody's worship.

If science proved his existence, and he was as-described in the bible -

No. Not if my eternal soul depended on it.

Depends. Will I be tormented for eternity if I don't? Personally I'm not a fan of never-ending torment so I'd worship my way out of that. Same way you do what your told when some maniac has a gun to your head.

Nice username by the way..

I would worship Zeus if it was proven he existed. However through prayer and the difference living as close to as I can the way Christ intended has made for me I worship God from the bible.

I don't worship human tyrants, can't imagine why I would ever want to worship divine tyrants.
