BBella: If you took a moment and put yourself in that ONE eternal being billions of years ago, you would do the same. Of course we cannot know anything for sure - but doesnt that kinda make this hypothesis more credible? We can know NOTHING for sure, but - I AM.-Yes, Just as God answered Abraham, 'I am who I am'. The voyeur part of dhw's proposal just having entertainment watching us is out and out wrong. God created us for a relationship, but He chooses to remain concealed so as to require faith.
