I believe that at some point in our past something or some group probably did indeed tamper with our genetic makeup and somehow imprint sentience. So my answer has to be yes i do believe in a creator or creators but not in the standard Judeo Christian sense or any other man made organised religion for that matter.
I would put as much faith in a vegetable's concept of a gardener as I would a human's concept of a creator.

It doesn't really matter what we and the vegetables think "real" is.
Are you implying we designed vegetables? Or are you implying that we are like vegetables, and that someone is cultivating us for consumption? In the end, the statement is vacuous.
Well, I suppose if you wanted to compare their quandary to ours, you'd have to explain what our equivalent is supposed to be.

What is "real"? what other things you have beside this "real" to compare it with?
Anyone who who claims they know are either idiots or liars.

That from our perspective we don't have the "eyes" to see the next dimension…
It s all around us and we are oblivious: like vegetables and 2D people are of the "wider" world around them.

Or at least that is the way I think about it. It might not be so since I have no good sensors to examine it.

And you do have the eyes to see it?
How do you know what you're looking at?
Have you tested it?
