That reminds me of an interesting feature in a game called Dwarf Fortress. When you join a religion their diety appears next to you, however they never reply to you or interact with anything else.

The Voodoo religion has a similar belief regarding their creator deity, Bondye. Bondye can not be contacted by the living, and he can not affect the 'real' world.
However, spirits (called Loa,) can be served by the living, and can contact Bondye. Or something similar to that. It's been a long time since I've looked up Voodoo.
