Why represent the idea of God as truth if it really all comes down to personal headcanon?

Easy, because most people do. Be it by indoctrination of their children, justification of atrocities, or by feeling self righteous, it is almost always a tool of coercion.

And people who think they're above of it all, and who think their lukewarm faith is the answer, are disgusting to the creature they claim to serve, as per the Book of Revelation, chapter 3, verses 15-16.

Because if morality is dictated by God, and God is whatever you want, you can justify literally anything.
