It is only insofar inconsistent as most spiritual/social norms are. This seems to me to be very similar to the gratefulness expressed i.e. by Christians and other religious people towards a higher power (which often explicitly is "incomprehensible" and thus probably not really addressable with human comprehensions of gratefulness).
