Nope I saidYou are saying we aren't here for the test.
I never said what you claim.There is no test for our existence.
Well it sure is not a test for existence. Our existence is a logical imperative and an observable fact, not a question and certainly not the question.So what we are here for.
I am not sure I would call the discovery of God a test but that is what we are here for. We are here to recognize and establish a connection with God that was severed long ago.
So your God says you can't get any better. That is probably because the medice he gives for our sin sickness does not work. Mine says you can get better with his help, although that is not the requirement for heaven but a very important goal.God knows already that we are all sinners and we can't be any more better, then why we are still here on earth.
As I stated we are here to recognize and re-establish a connection with God. Sin is an indication of that need. We are sick and so we should be looking for a doctor. However the doctor you describe does not have the proper medicine and even dictates you must provide it in the form of works and ritual and even then you will not know if the medicine worked until it is too late. My God is so loving that he not only provides the medicine that we can't, he did so at great cost to himself, and it is so potent you are aware of its effects the moment it is first taken. He requires only faith not slavish devotion to ritual and ceremony.Just in few words, according to Islam each soul is created and will be tested which sound logic for me, but if you got a better reason for our existence on earth, then I'm all ears.
