Are the bees aware of the beekeeper? Not in any meaningful way!
Such is our relationship to very advanced aliens visiting earth or even steering the development of life on earth.
That which goes beyond (transcends) any possible knowledge of a human being.
Religion expresses the hope that some one takes care of us. Does the beekeeper take care of his bees or is he exploiting them? Does it matter for the bees?
Greetings, Conrad (one of the bees)
