Quran 51:56 (an Iyah I think deserves more attention)

RE: Quran 51:56 (an Iyah I think deserves more attention)
I have to agree with Robvalue here. You're digging a hole for yourself AtlasS33. Though I do appreciate your effort. What service does Allah need from us? The creator of our universe. Allah can get by without us so why bother creating us? Are the angels not good enough? While we're at it, why create anything at all?

1. Serving can be viewed as an act of worship. Or maybe that's a pre-Christian bias of mine. Anyhow:
2. If we change the word from "worship" to "serve" the questions still hold in my opinion. We can do lots of things besides "serving". But you then say "God creates humans to "worship him" even though you just told me off for using the word "worship".
3. How much of a person's day can be dedicated to service/worship, realistically? Not that much I assume; humans need to live. Humans could have been designed so much better if their purpose is (only) to serve/worship Allah.
