I've been atheistic most of my life, with some exceptions. It doesn't matter what you believe in, when the pilot comes on the intercom and says there's a problem with the plane, you're praying to something or someone. Been there before, long time ago.
But I learned some things while exploring in calcplot3d. From playing with equations of higher dimensional objects, I found that a thing or object can be very close by to you, but just outside your lower dimensional space. Hidden in a higher dimension(s). It can be right there , next to you, and you have no idea it even exists. Directly or indirectly. You can pull a hypercube all the way out of a 3D space, so that you can't see it anymore, but it still very much exists. Algebraically, this is when we see the square root of negative numbers in a solution.
And so, it made me think. It's nothing more than a pure mathematical truth, open to no interpretations of any kind. It made me agnostic to some kind of higher dimensional 'god being' , or something to that effect. Saying 'god is imaginary' is the one finest examples of an oxymoronic pun I've ever seen. It's mathematical truth
But anyways, I get the feeling that these entities are here to observe, listen, and help when asked. They can't directly intrude into our existence like some 'act of god', but they can influence the probabilities of actions and events. And all we have to do is ask. We have nothing to lose by assuming they're there. If they do exist, and we never ask for help, then we're missing out on some greater aspect of the unknown universe.
Perhaps the gods are scientists, and we were designed in some sort of 3d cellular automation program running for billions of years. Perhaps our reality is a low-dimension simulation in a high dimensional space, which has been programmed to create an evolving society, as genuine as possible. Of course, we humans on Earth are just one little line of code, among billions of worlds within billions of galaxies across the whole timeline of this cute little universe. Why would someone want to do this? Perhaps to learn more about themselves, as if created in there own image.
