Fine:

I know right, its hilarious! I like the bit where god tries to hook Adam up with a non-human animal. Then he gives up and finally makes a women.

It was done deliberately to let Adam realize that that fellow humans, not animals were meant to be our true companions.

The verses about the animals can seem out of place or can give the impression that God first tried to find a helper for Adam in the animals. This assumption is incorrect.

So you know what god was thinking 6000 years ago? How did you manage that one?

Seems to me god wanted to see some inter-species action and ended up making a woman for him.

This is just a fairy tale. It never happened. And not only is it a fairy tale it is exactly why humans abuse our global ecosystem, because poison like this story sells us the idea that the environment and life around us is disposable, when it is not.

We are one species in evolution, we are not an apex. Cockroaches have been around a lot longer and outnumber us. The most plentiful life is bacteria.

Eagles have better eyesight than humans. Whales and dolphins have separate breathing and feeding tubes and are not at risk of choking like humans are.

Its all there in the Bible, Mister Sir Insanity x.
For your second question, my only answer is the God does not make mistakes.

Very general assumptions, I would say, Mister Sir Brian37.

God created the snake to test Eve's dedication to God. If she really loved Him, then Adam and Eve wouldn't have disobeyed His commands.

Well since, in the mind of the believer, "God can do what he wants. He works in mysterious ways. He doesn't have to explain himself to you." Allows the believer to swallow such tripe. The trick to believing is to drink the Kool Aid first, and don't question.
