I think the whole worship thing is flawed, I mean really this God that use to be a man like us is now requiring us to worship him. To bow to him, pray to him, serve him, devote 10% of our income to him. In the role of things is he really any different than our earthly father (provider) yet you would be damned to hell if you worshiped your earthly father. Just seems weird that this perfect being needs this power trip of us worshiping him.

Any parent that teaches their children that love means kneeling down and worshipping them is probably going to raise f***ed up offspring...

Who created heavenly father? Wouldn't he have a "creator"? If so, why don't we worship him? If he didn't have a creator and evolved naturally, does that make evolution ultimately true?

I used to sometimes wonder what Heavenly Father was like when he was a man. I guess I envisioned someone who looked like cartoon Lehi from the Book of Mormon illustrations, a man in his early seventies with the physique of a professional wrestler, who sagely guided over an agrarian village, on another planet?
