Christians - according to your theology which may or may not be true or partially true?

God put man in the position where he has to make a choice between obedience to God or self - good vs. evil, - right vs. wrong. The first one to make the wrong choice was Eve and then Adam. Because of this the world is out of skew with what it should be and everything has gone wrong and horrible things happen. Crazy, psychopaths torture children and animals, people commit murder, we have wars, etc... But God had to give man a choice, otherwise he would not have been able to freely choose God. God wanted to be chosen by men, not force himself on robots. But did you ever think that God is asking of man what was never asked of him? God doesn't have to make this choice, because as God he can only be good. There is no other choice for Him. So he put on us a pressure and a burden that He doesn't have. In a sense we have it harder than him. The creation bears a bigger burden than the creator. All he had to was create the world and for Him that was easy. He was never asked to go against his own inclinations in order to be good enough. We have more pressure and more responsibility than He does. And if we flunk the test we get tortured eternally, outside of Jesus, of course. I don't think God has been fair with the human race.
