And if "life can't be just this", what does that mean for all the other animals? Are humans more important? Do the other animals get to come back as humans at some point? Are they here just to make life more interesting for humans?
I am not trying to attack you here, I am merely asking questions that I believe follow from what you have stated and asked. I am genuinely curious.

Many Christians would tell you, that is the beauty of being a Christian, being loved by the creator of the universe, when you're right, why would He care about an insignificant human being in such a vast universe.
In fact His love is so great , that He would take on the punishment due us to atone for our sins.
I appreciate that you are not attacking, and it is just a discussion. In fact it is not a need for judgement; I see as necessary or just step in accountability, of what I did with this precious gift of life.
Funny things is, or rather sad, is that most Christians don't look any different or live their lives any different than the rest of humanity, when in fact they act in quite ugly ways.
Gandhi once said, "I like your Christ, I just don't like your Christians"
