Atheist struggling to answer a question i often propose to myself

[brewer]

i'm wondering if you can help me im an atheist but am struggling to answer a question i often propose to myself it goes something like this.....

If you see an ant crawling across the ground, to the ant, you are his god that could wipe him out at time, he has no intelligence of you or that you exist, for the ant he is as intelligent as he is going to get, and can't even comprehend we exist.

So could we be in the same position as the ant? as far as we can see humans right now are as intelligent as we can get, but growing up we do not have the intelligence capacity to comprehend our surrounding. As children, take a 1 year old or any age under 3-4 we are also at that point, (The same as the ant) as intelligent at THAT time as we are going to get and cannot comprehend to world around us intelligently.

So just the same as the ant, adults at our height point of intelligence, to the toddler we are the Gods. What if we, right NOW are at this point in time, at our current level of intelligence are in the same position as the Ant and Toddler? Could there be an unknown Force, Entity, that just the same as we are unknown to the ant and the toddler to his or her world, that is looking at us as we look at the ant?

As its happening right now to the ant and toddler, this is proof it can, and is happening, It doesn't seem that extraordinary somthing is looknig at us in the same way,

Would love to hear what you think,

Thanks

Just a couple of things. 

The ants are aware that we exist. They see us, our shadows, feel the vibrations we make,...... Why do you think ants attack us as intruders? They may not understand us but they know we exist. 

The same with children, they know we exist. Has the proposed god entity in any way proved that it exists?

For ants and toddlers, I'm not convinced that they consider us gods, just something that is not exactly them. 

And I'm not convinced that, as a species, humans are intelligent as we can get. 

BTW, Welcome to the forum. Woof!
