You all believe that pain, misforture, sickness, & the bad things that happen to humans are a result of expulsion from paradise. Whether by mans' own behavior, or Satan's influence, the fact is, prior to sin, people didn't have to contend with these things.
So, although god was pissed, he eventually calmed down and decided to give mankind a second chance through Jesus Christ. It's interesting that a perfect being can have a change of heart isn't it (ie. make a mistake?)
Anyway, knowing these "facts" for the last 2000 or so years, and being the intelligent beings that you are, can't you simply apologize to god, thank him for the Christ option, and explain that you'd rather just be with him straight away? If you all know sinning is wrong, and you all agree with the rules Christ set down, why must you endure a lifetime of testing & temptation?
While god might get a perverse thrill out of this process, most sane parents would accept a sincere apology from their child & move forward.
