In a panentheistic religion, everything is part of God. God is like an octopus and we are merely his sock puppets. We forget we are sock puppets and do not have fun?

Anyway, that possibility cheers me up sometimes.
Not quite. You're thinking of pantheism. Panentheism means that everything comes out of God.
