Interesting you used the phrase "pure dumb luck"... but I'll stick with your train of thought:
What if this anomaly, this random creation, could flick a switch and end your life? Or provide you with an unlimited energy source for your life? I guess I'm wondering in this hypothetical situation, at what point would you actually feel like you would "worship" this being that created you?
If you say 'never', it's not the concept of a "creator" but the accountability or the pride associated with having to submit to some higher power that bothers you.
