If I try to imagine an omniscient omnipotent being- I can't imagine one that would care about us. We would be less than ants to such a being. Do we care about ants? DO we worry when one colony of ants destroys another colony? Do we even give a thought to ants when huge floods sweep over land and wipe out billions of ants? No of course we don't.

And we would, imo, be less than ants.

Of course we're very important to ourselves, which is why humans tend to create Gods that are VERY VERY interested in humans. If ants were smart enough to have Gods I am sure they'd have Gods that were very very interested in ants. But wishing don't make it so, does it?
