"Adam was the agent, not the angels, and not God. Adam was to protect her. Adam let Satan deceive her. Adam allowed Satan to go forward. He didn't challenge him, or contradict him. He didn't love his wife. He didn't protect her."

So its all the eeeeevil male's fault eh? Isn't that stretching it a bit? Genesis never said that he didn't love her. The way I interpreted it, I saw that Satan went to her bc he knew he couldn't "get" to Adam the way he could Eve. Emotion has always been the achilles heel of women. Same then, same now.

"God can't do anything here unless He has a human to agree with Him to allow it."

Well that philosophy certainly didn't work with Christ, whom at one point asked NOT to go the cross (the prayer in the garden..take this cup, etc etc).

Im not a Calvinist..I just think that someone who hails himself as a "father" should take the responsibilities of a father..and accountability. God made a mistake..he let the drivel in knowing full well what would happen..and didn't send in any advance warning whatsoever so that he could prepare himself. That is not only irresponsible, its appallingly lax and unloving. If you knew that 9/11 was going to occur in 2000, would you not bear some responsibilty if you didn't alert the authorities? Satan had already been drummed out of Heaven..so where is Gabriel? Or Michael? Or any of the other angels with all of these "special" powers?

Sipping tea in the celestial gazebo?

Puh-lease.

You need to read it again. It's pretty plain, and you refuse to recognize it. BTW, if you aren't a liberal, you should reconsider. You would probably fit in very well with your refusal to take any responsibility for YOUR actions.
