Your concept of political [read: religious] correctness with God in mind does not work. He is thinning the beets. The test is intended to only save a few. It has always been so. Mormons think that they are going to eventually save everyone. IDIOTS! A McGospelized greed of excellence that is as unrestrained as it is wrong.

On the other hand, Buffalo, if you were not so dementedly programmed by academia to "believe it not" all things prove that there is a God. The universe is wonderfully efficient to give all an abundant reason to believe. Man is inefficient in synthesizing faith from such abundance being made blind by malicious overseers who see to it militantly.

Keeping 66% in is a lot more efficient than .0000000146188%

I don't like your god. He seems like a despot with a callous disregard for the well-being of his children.

He kept 66% for the second estate. In this estate nearly all fail. Look around. Do you see a Zion where the will of the Father is done on earth as it is in heaven. That is what Christ commanded and what he demonstrated when he said follow me and do the works that ye see me do. The world has yet to attempt real Christianity.

Anyways, God has worlds without number and a handful from each will still be billions. So perhaps with that in mind you can understand why he is so selective. Why so many humans if billions of world hold billions and billions? Why so many ants, some two hundred species on a single tree in the Amazon?

The lake of fire is not a great torture into which the wicked are cast. God is not like that. The fact that most fail to prepare to dwell in everlasting burnings with God results in that glory seeming to them as if it were a lake of fire. They cannot come nor approach to defile as they have proven so well that defile is all they want to do.

God is only the Very Eternal Father to us. He is not the seed progenitor of our spirit bodies. The Very Eternal Father is also the Father of all things. All things. All things. Not just us. We are therefore brothers to all other forms of life in their variety. Even to worlds. You have no more claim on God as your father than ants. Unless and until you are begotten of him in the gospel of Jesus Christ. Then you have lot and part with him. Only then.

Adam and Eve were your parents in the spirit body birth. It says so plainly in creation scriptures. Oh, that's right. You were misguided to not see it there plainly because militant manipulators wanted you to believe something else. To bad.

Yes, and that's a problem. His conditions for salvation are capricious and random. It doesn't select for kindness. It doesn't select for wisdom or intellect.

Seems like a shabby sort of incompetent God to me.

What prohibits God from furnishing this world a signet and seal in art of icons that would manifest in our culture, proving he knows the end from the beginning? And who would say that the gold plates were not a work of art? The revelation of this is to be drawn in by the enticing of the Holy Ghost to see and unfold the discovery of the art. So enjoy what God has wrought. A proof in an age of denial. Just in time I'd say. Lest the world not be warned before the commanded earth changes begin.
