Explain -yourself-.  Would you worship Baal if Baal had created the universe?  How about me?  Would you worship me if I created the universe?

Yep.

Yep.

Then you need to start worshiping the singularity.
Being told you're delusional does not necessarily mean you're mental.

There's a long list of gods that may have created the world, but even if one of them exists and did, the current state of the world is an obvious sign that it doesn't know how to run the world. Like if I created a car that doesn't run properly, but still expect people to praise me for it.

Ya could have just kudos'd him. But glad you agree.

Yep.

You clearly have low standards. I wouldn;t be worthy of worship if I created the universe -and- gifted you with a 12 inch dick. I wonder if the being you worship is pleased with your feckless allegiance, though?
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

I don't think God's fussy about the standards of his clientele.
I'm not aware of anyone being knocked back...

God loves those who believe and those who do not and the same goes for me, you have no choice in this matter. That puts the matter of total free will to rest.
