Another consideration, which just logically unfolds is that apparently, God had an ulterior motive, and he was eventually glad for the fall of man. Basically, the man had the right to tell him: My dear Daddy-God! If I am not mistaken, the good is what you like and what is morally good, and the bad, on the contrary, is all that is bad and all that you do not like. Is it like that or not? That is right, my son, would have answered the Creator. In this case, could continue Adam, let me know what is wrong, so that I could avoid it. Otherwise, why is this tree here, if I cannot touch it? However, instead of God, the priests concealing themselves under his name give answers. They say, God put our newborn humanity to a test. God wanted to see if Adam would obey, when he requires minor hardships from him. However, this statement is easily disproved. According to theological imaginations, God is all-knowing and he knows the future. Therefore, he should have foreseen what would happen, because nothing is done without his will. This means that God himself wanted the people whom he created to sin. There is no doubt in that.
