How do you know that this is my God ?
Because I believe my God was the first thing that existed .. ever .
How many other religions can say that ?!
One more thing .. Allah is your God & everyone else God either you like it or not.. you dont have to worship him to make him your God because after all he is the creater of everything and that includes you too .

What kind of evidence & by whom ?
Human knowledge is unable to reach the nearest outskirts of the galaxy then how can we depends on it to prove the existence of God ... the one who created it ?!!

So if there is no god, who made the specifics of the fabricated "god"? Well, man did. Man assigned his various gods their looks, places of residence, personalities, etc. Man did the same thing with Santa Claus.
What somebody believes in his god depends on what religion that person chooses to follow.
I Can't Judge the others .. as for me I know I did not creat my God .
As for me I believe my God is the one true God & I asure you that there is no other religion than the three Abrahamic religions who can declare of the oneness of God the creater of everything & that is what amaze me .. you know since it is just a "fabricated gods" then what keeps the others from saying the same thing ?

My religion has god as a lighthearted guy who believes it's okay to doubt god's very existence. My god thinks it's okay because he hasn't provided any kind of evidence that he's there. My god knows that "faith", unlike hatred or jealousy, is an inert characteristic, and not a requirement for goodness. So my god doesn't demand faith. And God is okay with religious jokes too. Since my God made the platypus and the noise of farting, I figure he has a sense of humor.
See ?
That is how you creat your own God & these kind of fabrication makes us able to distinguish right from wrong .
Logic is the key word .

I would choose the real God, the one who influences my life and the world on a daily basis. The one without whom life would not be possible!
You cannot deny the existence of my God!
Our sun is pretty insignificant in the scheme of the cosmos. It's not eternal.
For the purposes of this thread, I made "choosing" and "worship" equal in meaning.
I feel that as a species we suffer from eons of gods on high that demand our worship.
The initial replies to your op may have been made "tongue-in-cheek." But they reflect the limited view of God by humanity from the first days the Nefilim brought us forth into the world. And when we lost those controlling gods circa 1300 b.c., we have not lost the tradition of worship, which in a real sense was nothing more than slavery.
The Christ brought a partnership with God. Subseqent to his departure from the material world, we as a people have fallen back into the age-old habit of worship, slaves to an incredible number of views on what God is but summed up briefly as nothing more than the gods of Sumer, Babylonia, Greece, Egypt (with the possible exception of Amen-Ra, but then it was still worship/slavery), the pagan religions of the West, and the bizarre religions of the "New World."
So, in short, there is no God I wish to worship. Worship requires rules and laws. There are no rules or laws when it comes to dealing with the absolute God. And when the Nefilim or Anunnaki come back to reclaim this Earth as their own again, I hope to give them another taste of nuclear armageddon and chase them all the way back to where they came from.

Let's hear it for the sun god
He's a very fun god
Ra! Ra! Ra!
My God hung the stars in the sky and knows each of them by name.
