One reason is when I see humans, I see a manifestation of glory that to me seems to be eternal. It's eternal in the sense it is borrowed from an eternal light. It's not that it's beauty and greatness stems from originally nothing. It's rather eternal and must be eternal. When I think of goodness and love, this is what I see. What I see eternalness in, I see as names of God that are linked between us and God. The image of God or the face of God is a living link to me that manifests eternal and perpetual life.

Do you reject evolution?
I find it deplorable that by postulating these things about the nature of humans, you basically close all doors towards true inquiry into our past and how we came about. This talk about eternal light is just the end of thought, a pretense of knowledge, at odds with all evidence about our past and our psychology. It is commendable that you have constructed a worldview of your own according to your insights, and despite your adherence to the quran not blindly spoonfed from others, but in light of what we have learned about ourselves, it looks to me like a cul de sac far from reality.
The fool hath said in his heart, There is a God. They are corrupt, they have done abominable works, there is none that doeth good.
Psalm 14, KJV revised edition
