What makes the Abrahamic God more Worthy of Worship?

[Rainbow Mage]

Why is he worth worshiping more then my gods or any other gods? Even if he would cast me into hell for not worshiping him, that wouldn't make me want to, it would do the opposite because he'd then be a tyrant. So why should we (non-Christians) worship your Bible god?

non christians have no reason to worship the christian God.

If however you believe the Christian God is true then the game changes slightly from how youve shown it up there.

But i definately see how a non christian would see it that way.

Technically the Abrahamic God includes the Judaic and Islamic interpretations as well. As for what makes him special? Personally to me, nothing, apart from a massive insecurity complex and occasional bouts of rage.

There is only One God. That God is the Creator of all things, which alone should make him worthy of worship.

There is a difference between having problems with a piece of sacred text that offers theologies you don't like, and actually disliking God. God is not equal and interchangeable with Torah, and certainly not with other sacred scriptures that were not even written by prophets. God is God, and Torah, or other scriptural texts, are the result of flawed, mortal human beings attempting to translate the experience of revelation into words. If you don't like the result, that's your business. But it is a gross oversimplification of the concepts of God, revelation, and sacred text to assume that the totality of God can be represented by the attempts of any one author or group of authors.

What religious folk fail to understand that if there is a god, "he" isn't limited/restricted to their perceptions and portrayals of "him". I think the ironic thing is that the major world religions actually push humanity away from god rather than bring it towards god, assuming such a thing existed. They try to put a human face on the concept, and as a result it just waters it down.

Some have done that but on closer examination of the maximally great concept of God you find that while you can see a resemblence God is much much more than merely human, if anything I find it is the agnostic and athiests that try and humanise God in their arguements.

How so?
