Why did God allow Adam and Eve to sin?
Why wouldn't God wanted it Paradise? Freewill because he made Adam and Eve adults

Better question to present would be, If God would not have granted humanity choice, then, how could he be considered just?UsagiTsukino wrote:Why wouldn't God wanted it Paradise? Freewill because he made Adam and Eve adults

God handed to controls over to us so we could continue fashioning ourselves.
Will we be like God? Will we love others? Will we love God back? Will we care for things? Will we rebel? Will we hurt others? Will we be selfish? Will we hate?
Who do we want to be? What choices will be make to shape ourselves?
Re: Paradise, here is a play on words: If paradise is to be defined as "not being without" then perfect paradise can only be found "within".

so in others words God knowss what's going to happen and yet doesn't do anything because of what. Sorry it's just confusing to have my loving loe allow Satan to tempete Adam and Eve.

Because God respects our freedom to make choices. I'm not sure how you missed it. This answer has been around for centuries.
