What reason does God have to save anyone? He doesn't benefit from it does he? And of course he would only do something that takes that much effort if he benefited somehow right? Thats how we would look at it and we were created in his likeness right? So either He really truely loves and cares about each individual for no appearent reason and we weren't created just like him, or we are exactly like him and everyone is gonna be screwed when they discover his alterior motive.
Because everyone doesn't have as good as a life as you that they're able to accept that? Theres a reason why a lot of poor people are religious, because it's a whole lot better believing in religion, then the fact that you're just another worthless human being on this earth.
