Is there a God? If so, what is She like?

Are we insignificant in God's eyes?

Post by Philosophy Explorer »

In an early Star Trek episode, it was suggested that mankind was. With the Great Flood in the time of Noah, it was suggested otherwise.

Where do we stand with God (assuming He exists)?

If God is infinitely attentive why should God not be interested in what Man does, the idea that God is too busy is a man centered idea and is not indicative of what God can be aware of. Assuming God exists, why should anyone assume that God is limited to human capabilities.

He would not be all powerful unless invested in Mankind.

If there is a God, and I'm not suggesting there is not, he is not in this universe.

If that is true, we are insignificant to him. We are merely toys made by his genuine creations.

In the assumption that IT exists any measure of our significance is merely another assumption. God in that respect is a boomerang.
