If God exists, why did he create life? (The nature of a \'Creator\')

However, you say: "I view all creation as a purposeful movement towards a goal that I do not yet understand." It is the goal which you do not understand that is the subject of my question: "why did God create life?" How about: for his own entertainment? Sorry, but you still haven't even dented the theory.-The religions say love, but they can't prove it. It had better be love. Someone that powerful shouldn't be made angry, and there was an angry God in the Old Testament. Love appeared all over the New Testamant. There all sorts of other answers. He was bored. He wanted to entertain himself. He wanted to experiment. He simply wanted to, no real reason. He wanted to prove He could do it: Inorganic matter was the easy part. Life is extremely complicated. Unless God reveals himself, and explains, we will never know. And so far He is not the revealing type.
