We aren't here. We are all thoughts belonging to brains in jars on laboratory shelves.
Or maybe each planet is like an ant in the universe and we are merely a tiny part of whole scurrying mindlessly to do our part for the galaxy.
Or maybe we are here because that's just the way things are.
Or maybe we are here to keep trying until we reach a certain level of competence, which would explain the high level of incompetence in all walks of life.
Or maybe we're just smelling the air.

The best we can with what we've got. It has always been that way. Billions of men and women over time have not done the best they can, even with the vast amount of what they had at their disposal. Ultimately they lose everything they have in the end, even those who have nothing lose more than that.
What we are here for is to love. To love God first and formost and before all else then love our neighbours as we ourselves would want to be loved. Everything else will fall into place regardless of your own personal circumstances. All good things will fall into place.
As for the billions of pagans who have never heard of God? Well that is what the Christ is for, He is the worlds salvation and that includes the pagans who did the best they could with what they had. God knows this and He knows their hearts. It is the Christ who will bring them to God as well as His church.
God bless and take care.

This is God's universe, he has a purpose for all mankind: to believe in Him and his son, Jesus, love him, repent, and keep His word in life. And after this short and earthly life is over we will spend eternity with God in his kingdom of Heaven where happpiness lasts forever. If you do not accept Jesus as your saviour and God as your father and almighty creator, you will have what you wish, to be seperated from God in Hell where suffering lasts forever. God kingdom is for those who seek him and want to be with Him, Hell is for those who rejected, wouldn't accept Him in their life, or even prefered to spend an eternity away from Him than to be with Him.

I feel that being real, actually existing and living is so extraordinary and incredible, it's insane. Not sure how many of you people feel this way, but I'm sure if you deeply focuse eniterly on your reality, that you are really actually here, you would too. It's an incredible feeling to be real....
