No, God created freewill. God created perfection, but as we all know perfection automatically requires the opposite to come into being for the idea to make any sense, and without making humans as robots, that had to be an possible consequence of creation. Ironically, God even built means of mitigating the impact of evil into the whole system.

So god is not as omnipotent as he's made out to be?
So, god gave us free will, but we aren't allowed to use it. And that merely because god is somehow incapable of creating "perfection" (whatever that might be according to you) without creating evil. Two things that have literally nothing to do with each other. That makes god look even worse, you know.
And might I point out that this entire thing may seem philosophical, but in reality is just outright nonsense?
Oh, and BTW, if I were to create fully sapient robots/androids/AIs, I would have no problem if they actually made use of their free will and exercise their rights as individuals as long as they don't hurt someone. And if they did, well that's more my fault for not putting enough work into them, not just theirs.

Heard they`ll be making new rules on steam soon, for every critically acclaimed title you play, you`ll be locked out until you take at least an hour playing something by digital homicide.
After all, can`t have perfection without evil.
This is what your god is Hookey.
Let say for the sake of argument I give my 4 year old niece a coloring book and the box of 16 crayons. I tell her she can only use the color orange, stay in the lines, and only color every 3 pages, or she will get it all taken away from her. When she fails any of that I follow through with my threat over something that as horribly unrealistic for a 4 year old. I knew she would fail and at that point it was more for a sadistic satisfaction on my point to do that to her.
So, God is perfect, but he created perfection, but perfection requires evil....so was god not perfect, or did evil preempt God?
Either God is omniscient, or people have free will. The two options are mutually exclusive. Pick one.
Also, perfection requires the opposite in order to make sense? THAT makes no sense.

Shit.
It also explains why every other Star Trek film is garbage.
I fear we may have just proven the existence of God? Welp, I guess I'm off to buy a praying stool and flagellate the gay out of myself. See you guys in church.
Confused?
