Christianity; the World's Most Violently Persecuted Religion

Of course freewill will be used or the devil to excuse all this which of course leads to the next question 

Who create freewill ?

Who made the devil ?

On a somewhat deeper level, why would God create an angel he knew would rebel against him?

Presumably to continue and allow his creation to have free will, perhaps the third best gift ever given to man.

Yeah if it made any sense he simply wouldn't have made him or would have made it impossible for him to rebel but still allow for free will.

And again, we have the most lame attempt of preventing his god from being responsible for its own actions: free will

Because thats the best his almighty, all powerful and, most of all, omnibenevolent god could come up with: All this evil, all this death, all this suffering, all this pain, all of those.... for free will. As if not even an unimaginative idiot like TWM could come up with a better plan for creating the entirety of existence, if he really tried.

You know god loathes you?

It tells you this right in the front of the book you don’t read or understand.

I agree with your god

Genesis 6:6
New International Version

The Lord regretted that he had made human beings on the earth, and his heart was deeply troubled.

Why is the devil necessary for humans to have free will? Since God is the creator and agent of evil, a devil seems superfluous.

Just curious - what are the other two gifts (I’m thinking Stilton cheese and a really cool pocket watch, but you probably have something else in mind)?
