You would know all.
Nothing is hid from you.
Mentally, you see all that is happening... without eyes.
Were you to wish, you could zimply zoom in on any part of the universe & be there without leaving your throne.
There is nothing to do, as you know it all & can do all.
Seeking perfection is pointless, for you have always simply existed perfectly.
Games are futile. You win them all. The score goes up till you get tired of playing & stop.
What IS the purpose of God?

The purpose of God is to offer the delusional a security blanket.

The purpose of God is Love- not Perfection as in being all-knowing. Instead God wants to share his Love with humankind but there is an enemy in between who is beset by evil. God must resolve the problem of evil. The teachings of the Bible and the Church explain God's point of view to a certain extent. When God made the world He made it to be good, but an evil condition grew in the midst of it. The plight of humanity is part of the continuous process of creation which does not end until the last generation. God made men in order that He could engender in them His Love, His Beauty and His Intelligence. He wants them to share life with Him in His Kingdom. That is why He calls them to study His Word and to enter into a life of grace with Him.

The purpose of god is to settle human fears about dying and the shortcomings of the real world.
The idea is fun, but I doubt that god would ever become a reality (though there's a cool idea that intelligent beings with advanced technology would be indistinguishable from gods, which is neat)

God is indeed powerful, isn't He?
If we could understand His ultimate purpose, it would only be by His revelation.
We can't completely understand God. However, He understands us- our weaknesses, our failures, our ignorance- but He loves us anyway.
Perhaps the question should be, "If God knows all, why doesn't He reject us?"
God is love. He loves us more than we can grasp... enough to suffer and die for our sake.
Will you start a relationship with God?
God bless.

Humble S, very few people think on our level. I understand your point. And your absolutely right. The ironic thing is, because God is all knowing, and all powerful, he is the most bored entity in existence.

If you are God, you'd probably find something more interesting to do than playing games to fill the day. What that is, God knows :).

S**t and the Divine go together. Without Sh*t the Divine means nothing. There is nothing higher or lower. Without the Divine Sh*t will remain Sh*t because it has nothing to aspire to.

The purpose of God is that He is God. That makes you human
