Substitutionary Atonement! WTF?

We design things that are much harder to break, and much easier to fix. He knows how to create something. He just doesn't know how to run things. Like when some Saturday morning cartoon villain takes over the world, but it promptly goes to shit afterwards.

We design simple things, and some we can't fix. We brought sin into this world and it has caused great harm and we have yet to fix any of it. God's plan is coming to fruition and will soon be completed and the result will be a sinless perfect world, eternal.

We'd fire a zookeeper who kept blaming the monkeys for his poor job performance.

So you see yourself as the monkey in the cage, interesting to say the least.

Actually we've improved quite a bit over a long time. If anything has been holding us back, it's religions such as christianity. I don't see any plan of your god coming to fruition. What exactly is this game plan? from what I hear, he wants everyone to get into heaven, yet the road to heaven is narrow. So that part of the plan isn't coming to fruition. The best places in the world tend to be secular social democracies, which is a far cry from what god would want. God doesn't fix problems. He just destroys things until something resembling what he wants comes out temporarily.

Look at his actual track record. He's running heaven, when suddenly a third of the population rebels, and he has to kick them out. He makes Eden, but one disobedient act screws everything up. It gets bad enough that he floods the world, sabe for his chosen eight. 150 years later, they build a tower he doesn't like, so he tears it down. He spends a while having different tribes of people destroyed, which never really fixes the problem. His last attempt is sending Jesus down, who admits that this plan isn't going to get the majority of Humanity into heaven, let alone all of them. If nothing god has done has worked so far, what makes you think it will in the future?
