What is the purpose? Is it fair of God to make us worship him like he is a rock star and punish us if we go against his wishes? Is that fair?

You must be mistaken. God doesn't "force" you to do anything. You have to choose to worship and believe in Him. Or not.

He created life so that life may find joy and happiness. This short mortal existence is not that end, it is only a path to that end. Of course it is fair, how else could it be. A perfect being wants you to be happy and knows the course to get there, but has also given you the choice to follow or not. Without this choice, you would learn and experience nothing for yourself. If you were forced to do everything and had no ability to think or do for yourself, you would never learn from your experience, mistakes or good choices.

A woman was created for man. We were given the gift of sexuality. God and His angels are not sexual creatures like we are who need to procreate with one another. Since we are made lower than Them we can't fully understand that. Just like people couldn't understand computers in 1468. Did men stop exploring science though? All we can do is study the result of His creation. We can't fully understand it. Much less can we analyze God. To worship is to love, respect, and hold in admiration (to regard with ardent or adoring esteem or devotion). God loves us and deserves to be loved as well. Even if we can't fully understand Him. God's character is love. To obey Him is to be like Him. So, love brings happiness. It's really that simple.
God bless

God is the only Being who IS fair...He never changes His mind, He never changes the rules, God just is...God isn't male nor female, so why would He create only a woman??? i don't know why we call God by the male form...we just do... He created man to watch over every living thing and when man got lonely, God created woman to keep man company.

God is not a man. He created mankind for fellowship with Him. We were the ones who rebelled and turned away. That's why Jesus Christ came, so we could be reconciled to God. By the way, life isn't fair, but He is God, and you're not.

Another attack on Christianity! Well He wanted to be a FATHER figure (hence the name Father God). He just wants us to acknowledge the fact that we are here because of him. Hell was created because it is the sinner's will (subconsciously) to go there. And yes it is fair.
BTW if God made a Woman for himself, it would in a way be like a father having sex with his daughter.

Is it fair that you should be breathing His air at the same time you're disrespecting Him?
God Bless You

This has to be a question contributed by a male. It seems to me that a males priority is self satisfaction. They are almost a waste of protoplasm.

I use to think that until I realized how backwards I had it. God doesn't force us to do anything. It's all our choice.
