b. I did not choose to separate or rebell from anything. Why would I be punished for being created human? I did not choose this state.

d. Then why not just give it to us in the first place? And don't say he did, because there was literally nothing for thousands of years of human history. Those people get a free pass, or not? Having some people write down inconsistent stories that look idenditcal to many works of mythology hardly counts as revealing knowledge of himself.
I fully suspect this to go right back where I suspected, to supposed free choice. As if many atheists didn't spend decades as theists doing their very best to believe. It always, always comes down to victim blaming.
It's a really good thing it is just a mythology, no different than Zeus. At least ancient religions often recognized that their Gods were also monsters.
Hold on there cowgirl...in your scenario, everyone meets God at the end and then makes the choice, so everyone does have an equal chance at revelation.
