Who wants to feel weak and powerless in the grand scheme of things?

What are we, if only creations of an all knowing and all powerful God?
Are we Pets? Are we entertainment? Or was God simply lonely?
I can't see a reason to create something apparently so weak, feeble and insignificant.
All in all was there really a reason for our creation by a God?
What if we were just simple creatures and the universe created consciousness to learn about itself?
Maybe that was created to find the answers of what? why? And how? And now we seek these answers.
Consciousness is just one thing but we can work with it as individuals.
It got me thinking differently.
What if consciousness is like a parasite?
What if we were like many other creatures, not Human. Then consciousness from the deep unknown enters into our universe. It needs a body and a mind to work through. It's symbiotic, it needs a creature to work through and survive.
So it finds a compatible creature in which is best suited for survival. Two become one and the conscious Human is born.
It has allowed us unlimited advancement of the Human race. Now as an ultimate being with a desire to beat all odds to survive. Not just through breeding but with great intelligence, which provides amazing means of survival.
Now we have the ability to, in the future, escape the mortal earth, which cannot live forever as is natures way. But we can advance maybe beyond our own universe one day. Who knows the boundaries of Human capability.
Alas, if all Humans die, then consciousness is also lost. At least as we know it anyway.
