If one or many gods exist and if humans worship gods, then the logical question would be: Does God worship a God? Does that God of Gods also worship a God? Does the chain ever end? A thrilling question, isn't it?

no.
that's just silly.
because now you're trying to divide by zero.
this is like saying; "if God created the universe, then who created God?"
and if you start down that path, you'll never finish. it never ends. there's no answer.
because god created everything.
so who created god?
super god.
well who created super god?
super duper god.
then who created super duper god?
it never ends and there can't be an answer.
therefore it's not worth discussing

Logic dictates that belief in 'Gods' is a fallacy because of this very argument.
This question is like a fractal function. It is recursive.

Under such a scenario one must ask what is the purpose of worship.
I do not consider god to be some sort of ego maniac that demand our worship and obediance. Rather I believe that he asks it of us because it is ultimately in our best interest. He glories in our own success just like parents are proud of their children's success.
I believe such a view also assumes that there is an inherent right way of doing things. Truth that is defined as simply a fact of existance, and that even god is subject to. Hence it only makes sense that god's god would ask the same of him.
Therefore in this way god would worship a god, and so on in a chain that goes on for eternity.
