Why Would God Hide?

[Lek]

If God didn't wish to allow them to live infinitely in a sinful state he could have literary reverted the history to the point the Serpent told Eve about the fruit and make alterations to the Serpent's mind and character.

Also, living sinless apparently is a live of an animal, a 'vegetable' or a simple robot (considering the fact that Adam and Eve couldn't tell good from evil). Also being unable to tell good from evil Eve couldn't obviously tell that what the Serpent had told her was 'bad'. So it's Yahweh's design mistake that he blamed onto Eve & CO (the Serpent was also 'flawed' and He made nothing to correct it while He obviously could).

Okay. Since God is omniscient, he has read what you're saying here, so maybe he'll take your advice in the future.
