At work.
Well.... two issues with the "Within us" thing.
1) That make the diety pretty 'Small', by definition of hiding within the human body.
And,
2) Last I checked? I am distinctly lacking anything that could be construed as 'Diety' sized spaces about my personage.
Cheers.

Some diety's are posited as being "All loving/caring/(Insert your synonym here)"
Hence the 'Problem of evil' if you're positing a monotheistic belief.

If God is within us all and we love ourselves then that is God loving us.
That is perfectly compatible with the rest of the universe not caring about us *when* the rest of the universe has a mind and is God and is more important than us because there's more total utility there than there is on this one little planet.
