It seems to me that creations serve the purpose of doing things that the creator cannot. People wouldn't need knives if they could cut things just as well with their fingernails. People wouldn't need soap if we could clean ourselves like cats. That's why we create those things. So what would an omnipotent God create us and the universe to do? Was he bored and created us for entertainment? Was he lonely and in need of company? Was he power hungry and needed something to control? Was he insecure and needed to prove his creative prowess to himself? He had to have a reason, right?

I remember when I played a character in shakespeare it was difficult to remember all the words. I have great admiration for some fellow actors when they seem to have no problem with their script. I think there are two types of actor. The first is a natuaral the second type has to work at it. What is your experience? How do you remember dialogue? Share with me and the rest of yahoo answers some best methods of remembering your lines. Thank you.
