    It isn't.  But it does not do to leave a live God out of your calculations.

    Because every reality has to have a name. If you don't call a tree a "tree", or a street a "street", how is anyone else going to know what you are talking about?

    It's not.

    You can call everything "blag" if you like.

    The Christian God is the only God Who exists.  It is a sin to worship anyone or anything other than God.  The worship due to God and only to God is known as latria.

    Not a necessity... just a truth. There is a living God and the way to Him, the truth about Him and the life we seek with Him is through Jesus Christ, because of who He is and what He has done.
