The way I figure it, one of a few possibilities is true:

1 there is a god. He lets all the bad shit happen, and therefore isn't worthy of dedication.

B: there is no god. Shit happens. Nobody is there to be worthy of dedication.

III- there is a god. It kicked off the big bang and sat back to watch. Either it has the ability to affect positive change and doesn't, or it can't. In which case, it's still not worthy of dedication.

The end result is the same for me

But what if good & evil does not exist in an objective sense, and it depends on individual circumstances? Then the god obv need not conform to the standards. They can be both good and evil.

Idk about worshipping part, people seem to worship powerful beings.
