He also created the tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil. He wants us to obey Him, even if we are tempted to do wrong.

God didn't create dope; he created the herbs out of which man makes dope. That is not the only use these herbs can be put to. Just like God didn't create bombs and weapons of distruction; the resources these things are made of could be put to peacful use, if man had a mind to listen to God.

God did not create all those please, all that exists in this world today are the creation of us only. God never comes between u and what u do.
People may wonder why, if God exists, He doesn’t wave a magic wand and fix things, making or at least influencing everyone so that they do exactly what they ‘should’ do. But God never takes away anyone’s freedom of choice. God’s wisdom is to recognize and respect each soul’s individual identity, freedom and inherent goodness. God shares knowledge – a profound understanding of the dualities and dilemmas of love and hatred, happiness and sorrow, victory and defeat, etc. – but He does not make our choices for us. The soul is free to choose ‘to be or not to be’, ‘to love or not to love’. God’s love strengthens the soul’s will to free itself from the distresses caused by vices such as selfish desire, anger, fear, ego and attachment. God’s power helps the soul to recognize its highest potential and to aim for perfection by practising the art of simple living and high thinking. Such practice by a significant number of souls eventually brings about positive change in the whole of humanity.
When you learn to tune your mind in meditation to the mind of God, then whatever the situation, you always have a source of help and strength to draw upon – an infinite reservoir of power and virtues that is only a thought away

Apart from what you said God also created some poisnous chemicals. Does it mean that you gonna eat all those stuff. No never we do it. But there are different good purposes with that. A knife is good in kitchen who want to cut vegetables. its not for the kids to play lest they may cut thier fingers.

humans r sinful creatures, some choose to smoke and destroy their lifes. God made a plant from which some people use it in a bad way. God also put a tree before Adam and Eve and told them not to eat from it.

He created knives-- but not for us to cut or kill ourselves with them.
EVERYTHING has a purpose-- the DOPE you talk about is a MEDICINE when properly used.....

Just because He created it doesn't mean He wants it used in that way. Hemp makes incredible rope.

He created natural poisons, too. Do you think he wanted you to take them? He gave you a mind and free will. How you use them is up to you. If you want to destroy your mind and your life, it's your choice.

Maybe he created it for chemo-therapy patients or for other medical uses. I've heard that it's useful for women who are suffering from female specific infirmities.
