Because we no longer Remember that the Voice for our Farther was at one time our Voice, that we now & have always Lived & Breathed, & had our Being within & with God.
In our blindness, pain, & fear we are subdued by a siren song of lies, misunderstandings, & misconceptions until we no longer have the Vision to see our Truth, but believe we walk in separation from each other & our Source.
We have little Faith because our biggest misconception is that of the nature of God.
Many see a punishing God who waits at every turn to punish a Son who has strayed.
My experience was much like this when I was younger.
My experience now is much like the story of the Prodigal Son from the Bible.
I think the saddest part of our whole illusion of both Self & God is that for the most part, fear of God is what drives us, but we have buried our Vision so deeply most of us would deny any fear at all!
We can't begin to Remember God until we begin to Remember our Self, & that requires that we begin to search within for that which is the Soul or Truth of us & that which is not.
The search becomes a journey, & we never walk the journey alone.
Many Blessings!

The problem is the credibility of the bible. Christianity relies on the bible being a reasonably accurate document. Some Christians claim that it is a 100% accurate document. But as science keeps finding things in the bible that are just plain wrong, or that the bible has changed over the years, then the credibility of the entire thing fades. Some Christians ignore science. Claim evolution and cosmology false. Because their faith will shatter if they admit a single error in the text of their God. Others are more flexible, especially as there is little archaeological evidence around Jesus. But what will they do when archaeologists finally 'fess up that Nazareth did not exist in 1st century Judea, and other major flaws exist in the evidence about the Christian faith? As science has progressed there has been less and less evidence for God. God got the credit for lots of things almost all of which science has shown to have natural causes. God has been pushed back from a being that touches us every day, in making rain, storms, lightning and such, to some cosmological pool player who set the big bang in motion just so, to give the universe we see today. DNA is much less complex than the coast of Norway. Over time simple laws can give rise to incredibly complex things. If Earth was the only planet in the universe then things like this would be incredible. But it is not. Every indication is that the Earth is just one of billions of billions of life-suitable planets. Why is it surprising that life occurs on a planet where life can occur? You believe in God. And then you see things in the world and use those to justify your belief, while ignoring other facts that discredit your belief. Your 'priests' of science do not put knowledge above God. They evaluate all knowledge and see that some of it is incompatable with God. If you are going to accept most of science then you should accept all of it. Even the parts that point out the falsehoods in your beliefs. Or do you really think that your belief is enough to alter the facts of the universe?

mankind is his children and the creator has such great faith in them. So, the mankind is advised to repay his debts with the rest of the life span, without just wasting it. Life is too worthy for those who has seen the creator.

Mankind is on a timetable within a cave, blind, impatient and bound ... perhaps, its duality.
How can they compare divine love w/ human love, where there is no comparison. Some are ungrateful and unfaithful no matter what happens. Some hold on tightly to the love, even if its not there. Some are forever fulfilling the lower desires of 'self' and 'ego' because that's all they know. The blessed do 'see' the beauty of the magnificence of love.

I'll answer this in an unfair way. You'll go to hell for asking a question religious people won't be able to answer. Why? The threat of eternal hellfire is the universal answer to any religious question directed at an overzealous, religious nutcase.

IN this scenario the Creator has no faith -- it can see us, knows it made us, and can read our minds and know everything. Humans OTOH have no ability to interact with this Creator or to know it exists.

what makes you think the creator has faith in mankind?
has the evils of the world been removed?
are there no more famines, child abuse/molestation, rape, murder, theft to worry about?
are the innocent remaining innocent?
are the humane, treated humanly?
is there peace for all?
are we in some sort of nirvana... or are we in hell?

I guess it is HIS high Hope....that one day men(and women) may work and act as per HIS design. Creator is compassion personified and every kid born in this world is a proof that HE is yet to give up on us :-)

The Flying Spaghetti Monster loves us midgets, but some of us have strayed off of his path. He states very clearly in his Twelve Not Commandments;
XII. Thou ought beware those who claim to have achieved Noodly Perfection, for they are False Chefs whose claims of the Perfect Recipe will lead thee astray.
I guess some of us are just frustrated that we mere midgets cannot make the perfect pasta dish, as He warns us, and want to go to some false religion where they say that you can make the perfect pasta dish, as long as you pray.

God or (the creator) had faith in mankind because he believed in them and when they shunned him last time the world was flooded and only Noah and his family were saved.
