There might be any number of things beyond our understanding and imagination. But life is short; don't waste time cowering in fear of what might be. Find out if there really are such things, if you like. But pragmatically, withhold believing in them until there's reason to do so. Certainly don't prostrate yourself in worship of them - even if they exist, worship has to be earned.

Oh im not cowering in fear of what might be, quit the oposite, and worship doesn't even come in to the equation, im happy with my current beliefs in the logical world and science, its just this makes my mind race.

Ask yourself two questions:

Do you care if that ant jerks off?

Why would a being as far above us as we are to ants care if we jerk off.
