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

As David has pointed out, so far God "is not the revealing type", and if he is there at all, I think you'll agree that his silence cries out for an explanation. The conventional religious one is "have faith" ... again tying in with what David says about God and love ... and that is probably where you and I must again agree to disagree. Stick to your faith, and I'll stay on my fence with my puny human reasoning!-His silence does not cry out for explanation. It is more than His asking for faith. He has given us intellect and insatiable curiosity and challenged us to figure out how he did it, made the universe, gave us life, etc.
