=Annabea;5265649]To all supposed superior beings. There is no backbone proof. As in evolution say, we have some backbone proof. I do not know why we are here. I do not know how we god here. I do not know why there are so many religious in which every person in them is claiming that they are right. I think you get the basic idea of “I dont know” when we are talking about this.
Evolutation as an FYI has not provided a single example of “something” turning into “something else.” By this I do not mean that they have not been able to make a fly with three eyes, rather no fly has ever become a Beetle for example, and no money a human!
I will answer you’re question why we are here and we can then work backward’s.
Question: ‘Why didn’t God just Create us in heaven and avoid earth?”
Wonderful question friend
God certainly could have done this, so why didn’t He?
It has to do with What and Who “God” is.
Simply put “God is all and only everything Good – Perfectly.”
OK, and?
And this means that among the long list of “Good things” that God is and must be are the attributes of perfect Fairness and Perfect Justice.
In reviewing the wonderful story of Creation found in the Book of Genesis, Chapter One, we notice two very interesting things.
In verse 26 we are told that “God Created man in His own image and likeness” [More on this in just a bit.]
In verse 31 we are told that man was Created on the sixth and Final Day of Creation.
Before we discuss why this is, let’s go back and address in what way (or ways) humanity is Created in the very image of God. This is necessary because it supplies the basis for answering you’re question.
So we have already supplied a brief description of God, but admittedly a very brief one. So allow me to ask a question. Besides Jesus, has any human person actually seen God “face to face?” Noah, Abraham and Moses saw “manifestations” voices, fiery – bushes, clouds, and “the wind,” but I can’t recall anyone actually seeing “The Father – Yahweh God” face to face.
Peter, James and John came closest at the “Transfiguration” of Jesus.
**
The point I’m leading to is why is this? The answer is “Because God is Spirit” and thus cannot be seen except by other Spirits, such as the angels. **
God in Creating humanity has gifted each of us with “part of Himself.” We, like our God have a mind, an intellect, and a freewill. We also have a soul that animates these attributes as well as our physical bodies. That is to say, it is the human soul that gives us life.
No other creature, nothing else in the entire Created Universe, is so blessed.
So then we ask, why are we so blessed? Why are we Created in the image and likeness of God?
The answer to that question also the answer to you’re query.
It is necessary to understand both how we are “made in the image and likeness of God,” as well as why.
Let’s answer the “how first.”
Quantify for us “your mind.” No, not your “brain” which is physical, but your mind. How big, what shape, what color, what does it look like. We can’t because while we can prove that “main, intellect, and freewill” exist, they can’t be seen, measured, (physically) touched or smelled. Why is this? It is because all of these attributes are “Spiritual” just as are Gods same attributes. God’s are Perfect, while ours are very imperfect!
The reason God did not place us directly in heaven with Him relates directly as to why God Created us in the first place and why God has blessed us with these specific attributes.
The answer lies in the words found at the end of the story of Creation for each of the six days. “It was good.”
It was so GOOD in fact, that God Willed to be acknowledged and thanked for Creating “such goodness.”
**No other Created thing, no other Creature, only humanity held the possibility of doing this. **God desired this to such a degree that He wanted the thanksgiving to be sincere and from the mind, intellect and freewill that he placed in each of us. In other words, God desires that we come to this conclusion based on our ability to freely do so, or to freely choose not to do so.
“Heaven” is the reward for those who hear, know and do so; “Hell” is for those who freely choose not to do so. Not so differently than: Mk. 2: 27 “ And he said to them, ‘The sabbath was made for man, not man for the sabbath; “ in the same way heaven is made for man, not man for heaven. Thus there is a price that has to be “paid” [no, on our own merits we CANNOT earn heaven.]
Mt. 13: 10 “Then the disciples came and said to him, “Why do you speak to them in parables?” 11 And he answered them, "To you it has been given to know the secrets of the kingdom of heaven, but to them it has not been given. 12 For to him who has will more be given, and he will have abundance; but from him who has not, even what he has will be taken away. 13 This is why I speak to them in parables, because seeing they do not see, and hearing they do not hear, nor do they understand.”
Love and prayers,

So you are right though I don’t think anyones really interested in your theories. We are more interested in God. He’s our Hero. Our Savior. Our Lord and Master. With him who needs theories. We got the sure thing! The Real thing! There is only one insight we can give you and that is to give your heart and soul to God, I will guarantee you, after you see the goodness and wonderful things he can do in your life you wont give a darn about theories either. Instead of trying debating you will find yourself feeling much more peace in prayers. Thats what I am going to do now. I need to practice what I preach. I am going to spend some quiet time with God and in prayer. Its my favorite time of the day!
