There's my question. What do you guys think?
Response to manifold:
I don't believe in a god, so my opinion does not matter. I also never really implied that I DID think a god would care. I am just asking a question. But, I have witnessed the practice of worship in other religions (like the ones I cited). This has always perplexed me so I felt the need to ask a community whose majority believes in a higher power. Since nobody speaks directly to a god, I figured people would base their opinions on either a religious work or on pure speculation.

If that's the case then I'd say you jumped right past the more fundamental question to a less relevant follow-up. That being: Why would God bother creating mankind at all? What does he/she/it get out of it?

So we can worship Him and make Him feel good.
He created this great and marvelous universe just for us.
Is it so hard to say thank you once in a while?
1.) Question is not about whether we should worship it, but why it would want to be worshiped.
2.) God's a he?

My question was just meant to ask why some people believe that a god cares if it gets worshiped.
Wouldn't make a whole lot of sense to believe in a God that doesn't care.
IMO that's obvious enough to assume your inquiry is intended to provoke.
Happy trollin'
The world would be in pretty good shape if more people worshiped God and less people killed in his name.
If there be a diety that created this universe, how would we, with our very limited intellect, understand any of that Diety's intentions or thoughts?
I have come to believe that anyone that claims to know the mind or will of this Diety is either not quite sane, or a conman.

Maybe it doesn't make sense to you because your religious upbringing has perhaps made you narrow minded. However it makes sense to me. I find the concept of a god that is uninterested in whether we worship it or not much more plausible than a self absorbed god with tyrannical traits.
