According to the dogma if a human fails to worship/love/accept the
Christian god, then he goes to hell. Christians thus find it prudent
to worship/love/accept him in order to avoid God's clunking fist.
That's appeasement.

Oh, for goodness sake. Are you deliberately saying stupid things
because you think it's funny, or something?

If there wasn't the threat of hell you wouldn't 'worship' him.

That's a bit like telling me that the only reason I must be staying
with my wife is because she'd murder me if I left. Is your life really
so miserable and unfulfilled that you are unable to grasp the concept
that the vast majority of Christians worsship God because they love
him?
