The evidence would be whatever it took for you to believe that Christianity is true. It doesn't matter what that is.

but, i probably wouldn't do anything different than i do now... i think i live a life that is pretty respectful of others from a moral point of view and that should be good enough for any "creator"

So where should God, IYO, draw the "good enough" line? Just below you? What if a rapist/murderer thought God should draw the line just below him? What if Mother Teresa thought God should draw the line just below her (which would probably cut us both out)? Why should a perfect God tolerate ANY wrongdoing, and if He does, where should He draw the line and why? Pretty tough on those people who are just below the line, IMO...

if this was not enough, and i was also expected to worship this creator (as some forms of christianity imply)... i don't think i would, even if i knew it would lead to eternal damnation... i could not be sincere in any such worship

A good definition of worship, IMO, is to speak the truth about someone. Would you admire a good bass player sincerely? Then why not admire someone who MAKES that bass player and gives them their body and the talents to play the bass so well?
