Yup. To keep us in.
A parallel. We build fences to keep cattle in fields. And although it constrains them, fences protect livestock to some extent, as if they wander, they could venture out to areas of a forest where they might become prey to a cougar or bear, etc. We fence them in because they are ‘property’.
Mankind has a history of using lower animals for entertainment. Consider the Romans and their gladiator games. Consider the Spanish bullfighting. Consider rooster and dog fighting. Consider rodeos. Consider dog shows.
None of us can conceive what and who the higher ‘beings’ are really like. We can’t. We don’t have the ability to have that experience. “They” may bring their awareness
down to our level, but that is all.
We were created by them. Their ultimate and overall reason for our creation is only known by them, not us.
They don’t “need” us. They have everything they want on their higher levels, more than we can possibly understand.
I think we’re a type of entertainment to “them”. Hollywood creates all kinds of fantasy entertainment films.. concepts that go into film making. No reason not to think our ‘creators’ haven’t just done it on a magnificent scale, 3D, a full dimensional entertainment package.
That may be hard to swallow, but I don’t see any way to prove that this idea is wrong.
