All good points. A short story by Franz Kafka, "Investigations of a Dog" kind of touches on the concept that the higher beings are invisible to us, and that we fabricate them in our own minds to explain our experience. In it, a dog notices that his fellow dogs engage in strange rituals, after which their food appears. And he wonders where the food is actually coming from. He experiences fleeting glimpses of soaring dog-like beings. If I'm recalling the story correctly, his friends don't want to hear about it, and ostracize him. I have wondered if some of Kafka's writings belong in the science fiction genre.
