Indeed.

If God were to ignore my actions in this world and cast me to hell simply because I didn't worship him...I submit that he/she is a god not worthy of worship.

 So you want to worship a God you don't believe in for all eternity rather than be rid of him forever? The first option is what I call heaven, the second is what I call hell.

What you are unintentionally saying is "if God decided that I wouldn't have to worship him for eternity because I didn't worship him on earth, I wouldn't want to worship him."

 I'm saying a perfect being does not require worship.  Worship is a human invention.

 The Bible points out that worship is not for his benefit, but for ours.

 So there's no reason for God to judge our lack of worship if we've led a good life.

 According to Mormon doctrine, there is truth to your statement, yes.
