Take your pick:
1) Because god is an idiot and cannot tell who is worthy of heaven and who isn't without testing people on earth.
2) Or god is incompetent and cannot properly make people without the earth.
3) Or god is evil and enjoys torturing people.
4) God does not exist.
For those who need it, with 1, god is not omniscient. With 2, god is not omnipotent. With 3, god is not perfectly benevolent.
