Given all the religions in the world’s history, and all the art, and possibly all the love (though love seems lacking compared to the other two), it seems empirically evident that we are built (created perhaps) with strong propensities for believing in God, creating art, and loving. And we seem to like mixing the three - “God is love,” for example, and the artistically fabricated parables of Jesus. Yes, I think it’s a good observation that the three are probably wrapped up together, or maybe they are three approaches to the same reality.

I feel that by loving, I know an aspect of God. But that’s an unprovable feeling. I also feel that when, on rare occasion, I create art, that too is an extension of God.

My God, I’ve left a lot of logical holes in this statement. Lambaste me!
