'm not a fully spiritual person, yet I do believe in plenty of paranormal stuff and shit like that.

I understand that most spiritual beliefs come from trying to make sense of the unknown or the nonsensical, but are there any beliefs in beings that are truly beyond our understanding, kind of like what Lovecraft wrote about?
And I'm not talking about just gods I'm talking about gods that truly don't care about our existence, or that see us as more of an annoyance than anything.

I think so but Lovecraft wrote his universe to dense for narrative flow purposes

We can only experience an infinitessimally minute portion of the reality we can describe, let alone the reality we can comprehend, let alone the reality we can't.

There be dragons here, there, and in your underwear - beware and be aware, if you dare.

Lovecraft was a very strong believer in materialism, atheism, rationalism etc he didn't personally believe in any of his literary creations. Not that this is a value judgement on the reality of such strange beings but gor Lovecraft they partially represented a very rational view of the world

Look, all of Lovecraft can be summarized as
>What if eating and fucking and mother and sister is the same but a cat is fine too except it's the center of the milkway and also a tiny n-word man.
just like how Freud is the ultimate
>I want my mother's teat but I take this cigar which totally is not my father raping me as a little boy, vielen Dank, bitte entschuldigen Sie mich, ich muss wichsen.
