A Story for the Annals of Religious Creation Stories.

I have this interesting hypothetical story to be included in the annals of religious creation stories. This is one of the numerous short stories that I tell in my new book. But I first apologize for including a Supreme Being in this particular story because we have religious and belief system diversity. My work is meant for everyone and is thus not exclusive to any particular group.

This religious creation story goes that our creator and his minders—in whatever form they might be in—liked to discuss a lot. One day, the topic of creating a being with a “free will” cropped up. Our creator’s minders were forwarding their theory that if the creator made a creature with its own free will, chances were high that it would not recognize its creator, or even desire to honor him—even if it knew its creator.

Our creator was a little puzzled with this claim. Yes, he could tell the future and even control everything he wanted. But creating a being with a “free will” opened up a new angle to his ability. Creating a creature with a “free will” meant making a being that could do anything it liked and believed in, and not have to suck up to some invisible superior force or face its wrath.

This meant the creator could not directly influence this creature’s life. Well, the story goes that man was the creature and he was brought down to earth and made the superior creature; with its own free will.

Well, ladies and gentlemen, is there a chance that we are really being tested by a being far much greater than us? If yes, is it also possible, that our creator is simply waiting to see if man will do the honors and seek him out and give him—in whatever form he is in—the credit and honor he deserves, to have himself live the life of bliss that he desires!

This new world creation story implies man might have been put in a lab that is this earth and the test is still on-going. This is contrary to any of the numerous religious creation stories that we know. But what quizzes me is what man could do to turn the ball back to his creator’s court. If this story is indeed the case with regards to actual human life, then it means a new world creation story has just been added to the creation vs. evolution debate! And if no Supreme Being exists, then I know we need to sort out the mess that is religious diversity once and for all.

This is what inspired my book. If our life is supposed to lead us to some code, then this might construe decoding it!
