I cannot see ever see myself worshiping a God.
Is needing, wanting or worshiping a God a human defect?
Gods have no needs or wants Gods are said to be so high above us that for any God to have such a need would be like man craving the adoration of germs.
I see us as just as foolish as these creatures as we act the same way.

I can see where at one time it would have been profitable to bend the knee to King/Gods as in the original archetype city states, as used in the original Eden myth written by the Jews, but not today.
Our present secular systems of governance have bested the Gods in the moral and legal senses and only the really right wing nuts would want to live under the laws of the old barbaric Gods.
I am not an atheist and seek God to appease what I recognize as my spiritual side. But not to bend the knee or adore but just to improve any defect in my thinking; if I have one.
I know that there are way more followers out there than leaders but cannot fathom why someone would want to lower themselves to adore even a God unless it is strictly as a self-serving action that we hope God will recognize and reward.
That is hardly being good for goodness sake. God would know and send such hypocrites to hell. Which scriptures say is where the vast majority of us will end up regardless.
That means that you, even if you pray daily and hard, are likely going to hell along with most of those you know.
In a sense, you should feel sorry for those few who make it to heaven as they must spend eternity watching their loved ones in purposeless torture.
Gods have no needs or wants and have no rewards to give in exchange for what they have no need or want of.
The Godhead I know certainly disavows such a need or want.

Why then, if you are a believer, do you need or want to worship your God if not for the reward you think it will bring you?
