I thought about this just a bit ago before I got out of bed.
You guys, with your absurd monster character of God, which you rebel against, are actually in better shape than the Muslims who also have an absurd monster character of God, but who, in their stupid self righteousness create a twisted character of themselves.
A verse came to me last night on this:
"He has shown you O man- what is good and what does the Lord require, but to do justly, and to love mercy,
and to walk humbly with your God".
This was out of the mouth of one of the prophets to the Jews, but unchanging principles are there.
Justice, Mercy and Humility.
Humility gives access to the first two.
God looks at the inner person. He who is given little- little is required of.
You know the rest.
Now, on the question of why give a higher truth- to which one is responsible to, when rejecting it brings greater judgement?
Excellent question and one which is not answered directly in the bible.
Therefore, I can only give my perception:
1) God IS Truth.
2)Truth is relentless in it's desire to be sought after, and thus manifested.
3)Those people who go to Heaven by the skin of their teeth have no reward other than getting there.
God wants us to attain rewards that are eternal, and these come by doing loving acts of kindness, and BECAUSE of love for Him.
There are different positions in Heaven- just as there are here.
Every good parent desires their kid to grow up into responsibility and success.
How much more so the Creator.
