Revelation 4:11 “You are worthy, Jehovah, even our God, to receive the glory and the honor and the power, because you created all things, and because of your will they existed and were created.”
Acts 17:24 The God that made the world and all the things in it, being, as this One is, Lord of heaven and earth, does not dwell in handmade temples, 25 neither is he attended to by human hands as if he needed anything, because he himself gives to all [persons] life and breath and all things. 26 And he made out of one [man] every nation of men, to dwell upon the entire surface of the earth, and he decreed the appointed times and the set limits of the dwelling of [men], 27 for them to seek God, if they might grope for him and really find him, although, in fact, he is not far off from each one of us. 28 For by him we have life and move and exist, even as certain ones of the poets among YOU have said, ‘For we are also his progeny.’

I sometimes think about the immensity of space. The enormous distance, for example between the earth and Betelgeuse. How long would it take to travel from here to there? A lifetime?
And yet it is our nearest neighbor, as far as stars go. There is much beyond it.
Can you grasp the size of our galaxy? And yet there are more galaxies beyond it.
And you believe, I'm certain, that God is bigger than all of that.
Such immensity is incomprehensible to the human mind. Frightening to think about.
And so, we look at the frighteningly illimitable and seek to limit it.
We look at infinity and seek to make it finite.
We make religions to make God more comfortable.
Do you think your little religion can contain God?

Note these lines; Because YOU created all things, and because of YOUR WILL they existed and where created. In other words, you created yourself as you are your own god, god, i believe lives within all, call it our "inner Jesus", or what ever you may, external things don't really exist, i believe. And now to answer your question, no, i wouldn't feel bad, because if there is an external god, why would he punish me for living my life and not sucking up to him.

Probably I will not feel bad. Would you feel bad that some person who is your "father" who is never there, find out at the end of your life cared about you? Saying someone cares and showing it are different. God, if there is one, is a negligent being, hence actions speak louder than words and what can you draw from that?

No, because I'll have lived my life happy and fully, never doing any harm; when he throws me into the pit because I ignored his path, I'll know that there was no mutual love. If there was mutual love, my respect for him would be enough. I wouldn't have to be what he wants me to be, so long as I respected him and didn't infringe on his boundaries. But that doesn't happen, so if I wind up in deep dark pits of fire, I'll remember who put me there. :P
My gods love me. That's all there is to it. ^^ No necessary worship back. I serve them purely by choice, and even then I don't do it too terribly often. :P

Would you feel bad if you met Santa Claus or the Easter bunny and they asked you why you didn't believe in them after the age of 9?

Jehovah? You mean the ancient, Middle Eastern farming God?

Nope.
He sure didn't leave any evidence of his existence. I followed my heart in good conscience. If that's not good enough for an all-loving deity, then he doesn't deserve to be worshipped or loved in the first place.

No I would not feel bad because I already know that He loves us all. That is why he was able to send his son down to suffer with us.
