The one question that Christians cannot answer. I dare any Christian to answer this question.

If God is perfect and has always been perfect. And if God is good and has always been perfectly good, then God has never had to choose to be good. And God has never had to make the choice between Good and Evil. So for God to give humans the choice between good and evil is a logical fallacy.

Why would God create humans having to choose between good and evil when he himself never had to choose between Good and Evil? Why wouldn't God make humans perfectly good like himself?

Furthermore if God is perfect and has always been perfect. And if God is good and has always been perfectly good then it is impossible for God to create evil. Because to create evil is to not be perfectly good.

God has the knowledge of good and evil, does that make him willing to be evil?
As God does not think with the human brain, his thinking is likely beyond yours, mine and any other human. There are concepts he sees and understands that we don't know exist. His understanding of how things work is likely much more spot on than mine.

He created beings with a choice so that we have the ability to choose him and his love above because love does not exist without the freedom to choose love. Forced love is not love, it's obedience. When Lucifer decided that he ought to be worshipped, if God had snuffed him out, would that have been love?Was that the right answer? I think it's safe to assume that it was not as he is a God of justice. And as a perfect one, he will allow imperfection to show itself. As examples to all of Gods other creation, we are showing them what this means, what living without God is. Not as pawns, but as partners in his creation.

God did make us perfectly good like himself. Hes aware of good and evil. And, did he create evil or does he allow evil? What he allowed was an angel to make a mistake then let the consequences play out. He created humans knowing that we were going to help this act play out to share with all of creation his sovereignty.
