Yet, when you look at programmes such as Big Brother, the participants know they are being watched and act accordingly, act to impress the viewer. Act to win the prize.
So why don't all of us lead our lives as if we are being watched and judged and as if there is a prize at the end of the show, err life.

Because after a while you forget the cameras, and God, are there. Look at fly on the wall documentaries - people get used to being watched and go back to their normal behaviour.
That's what religion is for, to remind you God's watching.

I believe that God is all knowing and all seeing, but we are not all caring about what He sees. There's a Christian song that says....."His eye is on the sparrow and I know He watches me..." Those words are from the Bible where it talks about "Not one sparrow falls to earth without God knowing, so how much more important to God are you?" Personally, I believe God is aware of my every action, yet because in the flesh I am not perfect, I sometimes do that which I should not do. Sadly, there are those wo do not believe at all and could care less.

Denial.
There are plenty of people who believe their loved ones still hang around them after they die, but still do things they wouldn't do if they were alive and in the same room with them. They just ignore that contradiction because it makes them too uncomfortable.

Ok. He gave us a free will and 99 percent of the world lives for itself selfishly. They live like if they don't think about Him he can't see them. How wrong they are!

I'm telling you it's not because we don't know that God is watching us but it's because it's not easy to live in this country full of immorality not to mess up sometimes.

simple answer. because a lot of people don't believe in God. N a lot of people who do believe in God do not believe in the Hereafter.

It's almost like you never can win. Like the deck of cards is stacked.

You're right. But remember, He also reads hearts. He will know if you are doing good works for show.

Because we cannot see him. God sees through us, and we see through him. God cannot see anything if we did not exist to give him eyes. At his most sublime level, God does not judge what he sees, and at our most sublime level, neither do we.
