It gets so so much worse once you unpack this.

Consider these two points:

  • God is omnipotent, i.e. He can create or destroy or do anything He wants.
  • God is omniscient, i.e. He knows what happened, happens and will happen, and everything about the world He created.

With the powers He has, He:

  • Intentionally created humans that would fall for apple trick (as an omniscient being, He knew in advance they will)
  • Intentionally created Satan to set the scene
  • Dramatically exiled humans from heavens as if it's their fault (knowing full well it's His work, not theirs)

So, instead of just making a swarm of loyal creatures, he decided to be playful and make those creatures eternally ashamed of themselves, struggling to earn His approval even when He actively made their lives miserable through cataclysms, genocides, and all sorts of calamities.

He's literally a celestial "why are you hitting yourself?" bully, expecting to bully billions of people into servitude.
