This is yet another idea of what the test criteria are, which isn't even agreed upon by your religion, and requires somehow picking the correct book out first and correctly interpreting it in order to find this out. So those born into other religions and/or taught wrong interpretations are at a massive disadvantage.
I've looked into the skies plenty. I've considered all the evidence and arguments, and come to what I consider to be reasonable conclusions. Am I going to be tortured because I have the "wrong" conclusion? What is the matter with this maniac God character? I wouldn't want to have anything to do with it, even if it was real.
The test is not just "to look for a creator", but it is "to believe in the real creator". The answer to the morality debate is exactly this: a choice between God's commands and Satan's commands.
I'm not responsible for peoples' logic and how it works. Being "born" into the faith changes nothing; you have to think it allover again, and decide for yourself. It's very hard to change a faith you were born into; see how Sunnies and Shiites are clashing for centuries without a decisive change.
Keep looking I would say; my duty is to keep myself holding to this faith, lots of people stressed on the contradictions and sad facts of life; some others pointed out the science behind lots of things, as time goes, a design is unfolding. Your eyes must see it. Keep looking and keep your heart good.

I'm discussing the Quran. In other words; the Hadith and the sayings of Sunnies and Shiites are not my topic.
If the Qur'an forbade pedophilia, it would just say "oh yeah, no kid-fucking"
What it wouldn't say is a line about marriage contracts, which were all made by the parents at the time.
Direct citing by name is not needed. Other verses already made it prohibited.
It's not a phenomena to specify independently.
