How did God come into the picture in the first place? If He's out there, does this imply we were destined to sooner or later know of Him? Otherwise, was He not brought into the scene because of human's incapabilities in comprehending the universe?
Couldn't there have been no concept of an almighty being surpassing all human's limitations? Probably not, seeing how humans actually love to overcome their own limitations, the thought is there, take it to the extremes and we're bound to develop some kind of God at some point in time.
Granted, this is assuming logic, which God is supposed to be free from as well.
However, if no one is in the forest to hear the man, is he still wrong? Were us to be extinct and were there to be no sort of life form to ponder God, would He still be existent? WHY are we aware of God in the first place? Are we special? Do dogs have their Gods too?
