The Ultimate Thing

I've noticed there's an ultimate thing /
which is important to feeling beings such as humans.

(new stanza)
Existence? Pfah! We could do without it./
But if there is an existence, then some important things go along with it./
For everything that exists to exist, there is evolution (which I mean in an encompassing way, not just in biology). No problem. It's the best hypothesis and it satisfies./
To end suffering, there is death. Death is attainable. And, ultimately we need not fear it./
For peace and justice, there is ethics./
For joy, there is life. Every moment, there is life; the other possibility is that one is not alive, and when one is not alive, there is no moment. One may theorize that there be other moments, but such need not concern us. As for joy: life is sufficient, to make joy.

(new stanza)
All these things (not including the ultimate thing) are within our capability as feeling beings such as humans.

(new stanza)
Even order, even goodness, even being ultimately safe forever: all this, too, follows from the mere natural way of things, and if you want to know how, just look to evolution, which from nothing creates the primordial flaw in the fabric of nothingness, which is the first something, from which all else easily evolves, or alternatively doesn't create anything at all and that too suffices: no suffering, no regret, and safety forever from evil.

(new stanza)
However, there is one thing, beyond all these other things, which to feeling beings such as humans is the most important thing. It is: to be known and loved. (You may call that two things, but to me they go together as one.) To be known and loved, or to put it another way, to be fully known and fully loved: this eludes our grasp as humans. So now I say this in 5+7+5 beats:

(new stanza)
What we want from God:/
No act. No home. This only:/
To be known and loved.
