Why did god even create a earth. Why not just heaven? Why do we have to die on earth just to go to heaven. Dieing is suffering so why does god want us to suffer. he never stops wars and never gives us advice on how to live. if there is a god then he doesn't care about us.

I'll try another approach.
I don't know what's going to happen tomorrow.
God totally knows what's going to happen tomorrow.
I'll be faced with a decision tomorrow, God already knows what the problem will be and how I'll handle it.
But for a creature that is existence, for a being that does not operate within the simple confines of what we call "time" knowing what decision I have made is not a magnificent trick.
Knowing the outcome does not destroy free will.

holy crap...I feel really bad for you.
ok. No one will ever be able to answer why God made the decision to create everything, so don't ask that one, nothing will come from it.
We have to die on earth to go to heaven because God most likely would rather be chosen to be loved and worshipped rather than create a bunch of robots that are programed to love, which wouldn't be real love, get it?
Maybe he stops wars all the time. We don't know, just saying.
Dieing can be viewed as suffering, yeah, because of physical pain etc. But it's also sweet relief to a lot of people.
The bible is a big book that is filled with nothing but advice on how to live. He gave us a LOT of advice on how to live lol.

umm yes.. absolute knowledge does. There is only one way you're going to handle it. Only ONE. The way god foresaw. Not my definition of free will when you have no choice. Again answer the point I said numerous times. If god told you the future can you change it? Yes then it means god's knowledge is wrong. No then it means no free will. Go.

I don't see how anyone can be a christian with how god treats us. No respect. No help. We get the silent treatment. Thanks for being a great father god and showing us the way to live.

Even the dumbest scientist knows without evidence to prove something (i.e. religion) it is merely a theory. When the theory talks about people being resurrected and is tainted with political and social influence of the time it was written (i.e. the bible) no scientist or person who exercises logic and reason would possibly believe in it unless they resort to trying to convince themselves they speak to and are spoken to by god (i.e. religious idiots).

What miracle has happened? That has not been explained by science. That's right, none.
What instruction manual are you talking about? The Bible? Whatever happened to free will? Why would God make the Bible if he wanted people to do w.e they want? Also the Bible was written by men, therefore, it is already invalid.
