Man, I don't know. It's such a complex question. And one for which the two options you provided are not enough.
Is that god exists the only discovery in this hypothetical situation, or do we know more about said god? For example, my first thought would be - "Okay, so god is real. But WHICH god? The Jewish one? The Muslim one? The Mormon one? The Quaker one? Which parts of a bible are true? All of them? None of them? Only some of them? If so, which parts? Where does the word of god end and the word of man begin? Because if I'm going to follow god's rules, I need to know which ones actually count. Otherwise how do I know if what I'm doing pleases him or angers him?"
If all I know is that god exists, and perhaps even which book to follow, I'd probably say no, because I can't think of any religious text that doesn't contain at least a few words of guidence I find disagreeable, and put simply - I refuse to follow somebody whom I am unable to aproach and ask to explain to me the reasoning behind their rules. It could be he has good reason for this or that really backwards sounding rule, in which case I don't think it's too much to ask for an explanation. If I just have to go with him on such things on blind faith, then how do I know what I'm doing is REALLY the right thing?
How do even know if he's real?
Fuck, I'm right back where I started!
