Actually God doesn't work on these lines.
There is no need for God to choose anyone for any revelation.
When you tune your radio or tv to some stations you get the sound or picture.
The same goes with God.
When you get the correct tuning you are able to tune with God and know how the system works.
Nothing philosophical here chimp.
It is all very simple.
A bit more difficult is to tune in that direction.
That require a lot of hard work but as the saying goes........IF YOU NEVER START YOU NEVER GET THERE.
Ah, of course, it's our fault that god's message is so ineptly disseminated that it can't reach us. Just like it's fucked up for us to do all the horrible things god does and yet condemns us for doing.
This is fundamentally why there is no possible way for faith and reason to coexist.
Religions were invented to impress and dupe illiterate, superstitious stone-age peasants. So in this modern, enlightened age of information, what's your excuse? Or are you saying with all your advantages, you were still tricked as easily as those early humans?

There is no better way to convey the least amount of information in the greatest amount of words than to try explaining your religious views.
