And why would an all knowing, all powerful deity, capable of creating the entire universe, put the forbidden knowledge in the same garden as the only two humans in existence?

And why would it allow the evil being in the form of the serpent into the garden in the first place?

Sounds like, if it existed at all, that it was part of said deity's plan all along.

"Forbidden" means it was a boundary which God set. He could have chosen any boundary He wanted - He could have said "don't stand over there." He chose the fruit, hence "forbidden" fruit.
