You missed the point completely. And you also like to fight rather than engage in discussion.
No I didn't miss the point. What what you consider a fight is when someone doesn't agree with you. How childish is that.
If anyone who was looking for a fight it was you with your ..Seems to me that if God were truly loving. Implying that He isn't. It's obvious you don't KNOW Him - so don't talk about Who you don't know. Remember, you can't take your next breath without the grace of God. Grace is unmerited favor and you dare talk about 'if God were truly loving'. Personally, if I were God - I'd flip you off the planet. I'd give you what you deserve and show you how 'truly not loving' I can be. But God extended unmerited favor and created gravity to keep you on the planet.
To boot, God created man with a primal urge to test, explore, and discover. Anyone with children knows that the surest way to have them do something dangerous is to tell them not to do it.
And here we have pea brain man who has a better way than the Almighty God, who thinks he knows the Ways of God and reprimands Him on His Ways, to boot. If I were God, I'd turn you into a robot and you couldn't do a thing unless I push a button. You don't deserve to test/explore/discover in His world - you could be a danger to yourself but would blame it on the other guy. But God gives you unmerited favor to explore whatever you desire.
And on top of all that, God allowed Satan to have free access to his creations in order to tempt them.
And there's more advice from pea brain man towards his Creator. Once again, demonstrating His knows exactly what happened at a time and place he never witnessed along with knowing the intentions of God. You have a problem with freedom and are more into control. Pity the man who can't learn to obey and feels the need they must be controlled. God gives you unmerited favor with freedom to accept or reject temptation. He isn't into control.
So it is you who was looking for a fight - and your flame suit warning proves it. If someone doesn't agree with you they have a chip on their shoulder.
And you are trying to convince us you were looking to engage others in a discussion? LOL!!
You know nothing about God nor His Word. You demonstrate your disdain for freedom and embrace control. Obedience is not on your radar screen as a necessity. I would sum up your post as coming from a godless liberal.

I’ve never asked for agreement, but you are engaging in personal attacks because I have posed a thought for discussion that you deem offensive.
The sum total of your response so far:
I know you are but what am I...
Pea brain!
My Daddy’s going to get you and you’ll be sorry.
I mean really, you don’t see that? You guys started in with the attacks, not me.
The fall of man had to happen so that we would be able to choose to love Him of our own free will. God wants our love, freely given. There, that would have been a pretty easy wouldn’t it?
