Do I desire to have Ants worship me? No.

And, of course if I had the powers of a deity, and their behavior was paramount to how I consider their fate, I would have simply created them to innately act as I wish them to. There would be no need for praise or judgment.

Yes absolutely, I am vein. I would make my palace and bring prosperity to those who would see the wisdom in praising my generosity and power. It seems only natural.

I guess I believe that any "higher being" that's so insecure it demands, or even desires, worship from lower beings is not deserving of worship to begin with. I see myself as agnostic so if a higher being could be verified I'd be open to the possibility of liking it, but I'd actively oppose any that sought to coerce worship or obedience.
By the same measure, if it were me I'd have to unfriend myself for that behavior.

My understanding is the deity just needs to be recognised,no more no less. That in itself is the reward .i.e it is merely the self realisation on an individual basis.

Definitely not! I think about this all the time. I never understood why theists think it’s okay that a deity would create living things and demand to be worshipped and be deemed as “all good” and “all powerful,” yet his creation suffers unimaginably every day. Does not make sense to me to worship something only because they believe it created them or out of fear.

IDK, all the assholes from previous employers and bullies from grade school...
Would be rather amusing to say the least... LMAO!
=P

Me too. The whole idea doesn't appeal to me.

Isn't that that the whole point of the 'Jesus' tales written about in the bible? We are suppose to emulate and be more like a jesus being; kind, loving, accepting of all beings, etc. I for sure would not 2b worshipped. I think the greatest honor would be for subspecies to follow my ideals and try not to corrupt them. I guess that is my biggest problem with christians, how down right mean they can be to non-believers.

That's why their imaginary god hates his worshipers and likes to prank them with war, pestilence and starvation. Other than that, he is a nice guy.

I'd be Odin. I figure people can make their own damn minds up. My mind is to small, and I am ignorant.

No worship, please! Freaking embarrassing! Just io what I say, in a speedy fashion!

no shit....you hit it on the nail. Who wants to spend the 'rest of eternity' with the God in the Bible??? What an asshole!!!

Having a few minions around could be fun.

I don't think you would have a choice as long as there was some sub-species around the stupidest among them would want to worship you and make up wild stories about you and the others would just be envious and want to be you.

Nope.

No way, but it may be possible to look around at people you know. How do they treat their pets and kids? My parent always treated us as less, because we were their children. Respect your elders , obey your parents, I am almost 60 and my mothers still sprouts it,.
