Am I right in assuming that your approach to reality focuses on a higher power that -- if such exists -- has by definition power over every atomic particle in what appears to be an infinite universe -- while concurrently exercising infinite power over all that might exist beyond our "infinite" universe?
That's a big stretch, to think we have any meaning to such a power.
Nonetheless, it seems to me that such a power -- if it exists and is interested in me -- would measure me much as a parent would -- according to how well I used the gift of life as a thinking and productive being.
A very socratic response. Socrates recognized the big stretch, "to think we have any meaning to such a power." Although he had his own way of phrasing it. He thought it an arrogant and pitful presumption to think that humans possessed that of themselves. At the same time, he never denied a meaningful relation to such. He recognized the significance of knowledge as a participation in what was larger than himself.
