Assumeing the strategy of "covering bets" by worshipping/believing in a God, it begs the question which God there are so many to choose from.
Does your specific diety have any empirical evidence of its existence?

Yes. All life forms are Carbon based. Check the periodic table for 'C', that would be carbon. God is in all, we are all related.
If you don't like that one then check out Tesla, everything in the Universe is made of energy. I know it's out there, but you asked, and science does not contridict my beliefs in the 'nature' of God.

Yes, Look around you. All Living things were created by God. Also , Jesus said "blessed are those that Believe and have not seen". It take faith. TO believe even though you cant see him. "Covering your Bets" was just a figure of speech. Jesus says "behold, I stand at the door and knock." He Knocks on the door of our heart waiting for us to open up and let him in. For that is the only way Man can inter the Kingdom of Heaven!

I do not ever intend to gamble away my soul. God gave it to me, being the selfish person I am I have no intention whatsoever of giving it back. In my opinion I sincerely doubt God wants it back anyways. I would honestly be upset if someone wrapped up my gift to them and gave it back to me when they died. I will keep this soul until the end of days. If any God wants to claim it as their own then they are not my God.

There is no "covering of bets" in eternal matters.
Eternity is as real as the physical universe, and it has rules and laws more rigid than the laws of physics. But you can't use physics to measure eternity, any more than you can measure time with a yardstick.
God "is". Just like gravity "is." You can believe in gravity or not, but that doesn't change the fact that it exists.

I hate that reasoning..."covering bets". And it's not even to defend their own belief, it's used to attempt to convert others. "Don't you know it's safer to cover all bets?" And what? Live in fear? I love my freedom and I refuse to part with it to please you, thank you.

If there were empirical evidence we wouldn't be exercising FAITH
If you really, really want to know which God, PRAY.
