What do we want with children? Why do we care for them? why do we love them? Why do we spend our lives devoted to them in one form or fashion?
We are made in God's image, meaning we share emotion value and even a sense of need. If you can relate to how we desire to bind with our kids you might have some sense as to why God would want us to share a bond with Him.
The rules He provides (and subsequent attonement) are used as a sift. To seperate those who do want to share such a bond and those who do not.
