If I were a deity I would not have any need for servants.

Morality is a human construct, just like the term life is also just something humans created to describe natural chemical systems with an abstract ideal.

What if.... Humor Me as I am a fool. What if when the time of Your 'passing' You revert back to whence You came and melded back to Hunab Ku? Then what? That is if You 'come through the other side' and You don't have the $$ You broke Your back earning, how will You get along then?

Only a fool would try to answer this, so...
If you were a deity, how would you construct a fair morality test for your servants?

The story of our lives, recorded in our minds, is the record of our lives here. Every thought, every sight, sound and action recorded in memory like a CCD camera on the wall of your life.

Surely morality was also created to describe natural chemical systems with an abstract ideal as well.
If you had to conduct a fair test on natural systems understood by abstract ideals how would you do it?

I've got a 3 point plan.
1. Clear boundaries without any need for "interpretation".
2. Equal starting ground.
3. A prize if you win.
How would you do it?

Why would you want to? So this deity created these life forms and then wants to test something he put into them in the first place already knowing the results?
