No, and certainly did not know we would disobey him to this extent and all odds were that we would not.  The worst has happened it seems, and we are dealing with a perfect system with the worse results in a perfect system.

Okay, so you do not believe that God is omni-present and omni-powerful, spanning all times despite being Himself timeless?

You think he is a limited entity, and that at least some things in the Universe are unknowable to Him?
