J&M pointing out the obvious fact that during these times of crisis caused by natural phenomenon such as global pandemics, tsunamis, volcano's, earthquakes etc. None of the thousands of Gods that people have ever believed in over the millennia appear to be the slightest bit interested or bothered as we suffer and perish in our thousands. Now this could be for some complex, deep, impossible to comprehend theological reason or simply because all these magical entities are entirely imaginary and man made. People have to decide for themselves what the evidence of their own eyes suggests is most likely, but on a more practical point, since there is essentially so little difference between the absent and the non-existent we might as well crack on and sort life's challenges out ourselves using compassion, reason and science, after all, life is way too short to worry about the ridiculously unlikely foibles of callous (imaginary) despots in the trees/mountains/clouds/heavens etc.
