ATlian, I like your analogy of the Jobs story to the mama who lets her daughter suffer. God had nothing to prove to Saturn. The bible is full of so many contradicting stories. If we accept that God needed to prove something to saturn, then when Jesus was tempted by the devil to throw himself from the mountain top he would have gladly done so or even turn stones to bread. but no it had to be Job.
In another thread, there was another interesting analogy of why every father would have sacrificed his son just like Jesus knowing very well that it will only be a matter of time (3 days) before they are reunited in heaven.
