You know you're on the right track when you, unknowingly, quote scripture. That is TRUE inspiration. The REAL quote was: He who created Death and Life, that He may try which of you is best in deed; and He is the Exalted in Might, Oft-Forgiving". [Qur’an 67:2] The phrase, 'Exalted in Might' is translated differently in various translations, but holds the concept that God is ABLE to do that which will be done and that He WILL DO that which will be done, i.e., He will do that which He is able to do; and, in my theory, it is incumbent upon The One to do all that which is possible, as that is the only way of retaining and maintaining omnipotence. Arabic can say all that with one word, though. Note that the trial regards our deeds. To me, this would imply that, whilst one may have the odd naughty thought, it's our deeds that speak louder to God than our passing thoughts. And, of course, the fact that God is 'Oft- Forgiving' lends a bit of credence to that, in that He is willing to overlook certain things in light of other things. On another note, the Qur'an says nothing about reincarnation. It seems to be of the opinion(!?) that we have to view this life as a 'one and only chance to get it right'. Anything less than that, and we will allow ourselves a 'chance' to get it wrong. Perhaps it's a corrolary of Pascal's Wager in that, if we assume this is our only chance to get it right, we'll try harder to do so, whereas, if we view life as one in a series where we may, eventually, get it right, we may doom ourselves by being too lax in THIS life and blow the one chance we get.
