A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. The best ones are thoughts that many people can relate to and they find something funny or interesting in regular stuff.

This is actually a good point because as someone who doesn't really believe in god - or rather, any god that mankind thought up, I definitely don't think the same way of my cat.
This is also true and a really valid perspective to consider.
I feel like the answer OP was trying to go for was "they both love the thing so much they couldn't do it" but that's a really narrow-minded view of human experiences. I'm actually wondering how many people are like me and believe in God but feel no more love for God than they do any random things in life.
Exactly! I would probably think more of my cat because to me, god is just some character from a book that may or may not be real.
