The point that I was making is that God did not plan this, ... nor were the Israelites doing as He intended when they did this.

If He knew it would happen and created the situation anyway then He did intend for it to happen.

Your belief is at odds with His testimony.
Jeremiah 32:35 And they built the high places of Baal, which are in the valley of the son of Hinnom, to cause their sons and their daughters to pass through the fire unto Molech; which I commanded them not, neither came it into my mind, that they should do this abomination, to cause Judah to sin.
He says that He didn't plan or intend this ... though, obviously, ... He allowed it.
