Aren’t we his children?

I thought we were his pots!

Okay, let's say that this time, for the sake of the argument, we are his 'relatives.' You said "He may not eternally like all of his relatives."

Don't you think he would have known that from all eternity, so why did he bother making them? Like I said, why all the blood and guts, when the ultimate goal is the world to come where everybody will mindlessly be good (incapable of sinning)!

“the world to come where everybody will mindlessly be good (incapable of sinning)!”

Where do you find that in heaven “everybody will mindlessly be good (incapable of sinning)!”?

(Revelation 21:27) “Nothing impure will ever enter it, nor will anyone who does what is shameful or deceitful, but only those whose names are written in the Lamb’s book of life.”

Since the consequences of sin announced in Genesis 3:14-19 (the frustration and endless toil of work, enmity, sorrow, pain and death) have been removed Revelation 21:4, 22:3, man will inhabit a restored, perfected environment with,
— Intense, refined intellectual activity
— Pure, intense sensual experience
— Harmonious balance between body, soul and spirit
— Vast and varied companionship
— Limitless joy of personal fulfillment.

Why would anyone want to go back to chaos? That would be mindless spiritual masochism.
