A higher power, or perhaps a creator, does not have to care about the pain and suffering of humans. An entity with god-like powers probably wouldn't have the vain or narcissistic qualities of humans and feel the need to prove himself. If it's another dimensional being, perhaps it doesn't even have the capability.
I don't think it's foolish to believe this.

Then why has this non-religious god followed the same as the religious gods and not proven himself or stopped bad things from happening?
I see what you're saying, and it goes back to Muta's example of we as an experiment in a petry dish - but the idea that no such entity exists is just as tenable as one that does, and when you think about it, the proof (or lack thereof) is more on the side of believing no such entity exists altogether.
