God is the dungeon master, and humans are the chess pieces. Don't see how an all wise god would think that is a good idea, unless he is incredibly bored.
I also had to search up if the islamic God is supposed to be good. He seems to atleast reward good behavior.
Yeah i still dont see how this makes sense? Like to me it just seems he's incredibly immorale if that is the case. I mean if the idea is to create a world for failed models to strive instead of having a world where people get along.
No, humans aren't puppets and God is not real. Why do you think otherwise? And if you think the idea of giving God a role in human affairs is as silly as using us as finger puppets for His self amusement .. why do you think he has any role whatsoever? Are you a deist then?
You are totally right, but I am afraid you missed the conclusion.
Yes, if there is a Will/Power behind our existence, it would be non-sense, if not silly, if it looks using me as a puppet to amuse any other being, on earth or elsewhere.
Also, it would be non-sense if it forced me to exist in this life for no reason.
But actually there is a third point (possibility) which has nothing to do with the previous two.
Could you guess it?
I am afraid one can know it or, at least, imagine it only if he has the chance to be a real free independent person.
