Whether or not God exists is inconsequential to the human experience

You either misunderstood his post or I did, according to my interpretation Lemur said there probably is a god but we have no idea who or what it/she/he is wants etc., you say there are many gods created by humans so "aliens" must have created just as many different ones. You just apply a typically atheist view to his view but I don't see where Lemur said that we created god, I think he is saying that god may have created us but we don't know/don't get his message if there even is any, not that we made god up, which is what you are implying. With Lemur's view one could say that we all have some sort of connection to god/know she exists/spiritualuity but we all interprete it differently, thus creating different religions, aliens might be worshipping the same god but in different ways, that wouldn't mean she was just made up by us, just that we cannot grasp her in any way.

Lol. I think you misinterpreted my post. I didn't say we "created" god nor that I am an atheist. I'm a Yahwist. I believe in a god, but I don't know anything about him. And I can't, no one can. You can logically deduce certain things, like it may have an affinity towards life due to our existence, but you cannot know its motives. Lemur said we can't conceive of what any god is, wants and does, because we feasibly can't. I agreed with that statement, by saying that other sentient life-forces may also have a god/gods that they worship and the sheer number of these gods is a good way of coming to terms with the fact that we can't ever conceive of the actual details of a god, because every culture/race/species across the universe would apply their own view. That doesn't mean they can't sense or feel a god or a "divine presence".

I voted disagree but "Gah!" might be better.

As with religion, it's actually the people who make it, not a supreme being.

I think God's existence is of consequence to human existence, especially if you give a about him/her/it. In terms of day to day impact, I should imagine many faithfull people consider their actions acording to what "he" has "said" he would like/advise them to do.

But I don't really think I feel the tremours of a supreme being's will.
