If there is a creator, so what?

Ignorant: Well no, we haven't established I'm dependent on it for anything. You're making a lot of assumptions there. You're using your own ideas of what a creator represents. [1]

But even if I am, so what? [2]

1) Ha! I though that was the idea? When you grant the hypothetical god existing, doesn't that also grant the "sort" of god it is as well? Maybe not?

2) Well, your "being" and god's "being" are tied up at the most fundamental level of your "being-Rob". 

You're married. Something tells me that knowing things about your spouse and the nature of your relationship matters to you, and it probably helps guide your decision-making (maybe not, assuming a lot here, but you seem like the kind of guy who would care about those things).

If the most fundamental part of "being-Rob" is some kind of a relationship with god's "being", then maybe it matters in a way similar to your marriage?

The OP was about a general creator, but sure, you can have your version.

I don't have much of an idea what you're talking about I'm afraid. Sure, if I learnt something new about my wife it would be important. But such analogies aren't very helpful to me. Can you give me one example of something I might learn "about God" which should make any difference to me?

It appears to be phrased in such a way that learning about God is just learning about myself, or learning about reality. I've never understood your idea of "God" I'm afraid.
