As a matter of fact, I just got a revelation from God!
It turns out that life really is a test, just as Theists keep claiming. What they got wrong is what the test is supposed to determine. You see, it turns out that there's only so much room in Heaven and God is competing with another rival creation in another dimension, so he needs only the best and brightest in Heaven.
This life was created as a test to see if we're capable of using critical thought and using our minds or if we just take the easy road of faith and GodDidIt. Consequently, only free thinkers are getting into Heaven. Sorry Christians.
You can believe me because God said so. And I have just as much proof as you do. So better renounce Christianity and embrace critical thought and skepticism or else you'll pay the price on Judgment Day.
