Why should I worship God?

[Peter_Alhash]

Let’s say that using various methods I’ve proven the God’s existence. Mostly philosophical methods, I mean. Still, even if I know the God exists and therefore believe in him, why is it important to worship him?

• I believe that I exist. I find nothing special in the fact.
• I believe that God exists. I find nothing special in this fact, either.
• What advantage does it give to me, believing in God?
  For information, I am still an atheist.

Your questions indicate that you have not thought deeply on what it might mean to exist as a human person whose eternal soul was specially created at the moment of your conception by an infinite and loving God. If you had, then how could you possibly say that you can “find nothing special” about that fact?

I can only recommend that you return to your philosophical pondering, but this time divested of the attitude of what might be in it for you (i.e., “What advantage does it give to me?”). Ponder instead what a debt of gratitude a dependent creature would owe to a Creator who gives humans life and the possibility of eternal happiness if they but love him in return.
