Okay you are asking why he created Satan, hell and punishments for humans right....
Well you see god gave us all brains to think with and since we were little we have been thought about what is right and what is wrong. No one can input their judgment on something other than yourself. Meaning that you make your decision you decide who you want to be in the world when you are living. This decision will either make it that you go to hell or you don't.
Yes, god does love everything he created but there had to also be consequences...what if you lived yourself peacefully and tried not to do any mistake while your neighbor was off killing people...and when you both died he would also go to heaven even though he did all those things while you dedicated your life so be a good person for the same reason.That would be so unfair to you right! You see there has to be consequences for our actions god gave us a brain to think for us. So we have to use it , we decide what to do either what is good or what is bad. So he did that to test us and see how we are living life now, he loves us but he wants to see how much you love him and try to at least be a good person.
There is always going to be a reason for everything and maybe punishing people for what they do might only seem the right choice! I hope this has kind of helped you .

Actually satan had choice, to or not to betray, and so do we..
Satan can only reach us through minds,like
"wow,that's a hot hot girl,and she is looking right through u,
go and screw her,ur wife will not know eh?"
in this situation u have chance to do what he says or not..
that is freewill,
and this is not the whole story yet,
there is also good "things" that wisper nice advices to ur mind just like in the cartoons :) saying
"dont do that, even if she doesnt know, thats a bad thing,dont be the bad one"
so there is a balance in life,
when it comes to the Q "why god created the hell"
think bout ur mum, wouldnt she punish u if u killed a person??
If there were no punishment for sins,we would be badasses without any hesitation...

You pose some fairly good questions that not even the most knowledgeable Christians can answer. Don't let people tell you you are misguided. That's what the Bible is for, to dissect and give us knowledge of life and wisdom, the good and the bad. Basically it's a reference material for all humankind.
And truth be told the Bible at times makes no sense, no matter what anyone tells you yet, that is not the point here. God works in "mysterious ways" and the only things you can do are to continue asking questions and live your life to best of your ability, mistakes and all and when the time comes hopefully your questions will be answered.

We are just humans and so we don't know how God's mind works. Whoever tries to answer this question will answer it to their best of abilities but that does not necessarily mean it's the truth. Only God Himself has the answer.
This is my own opinion, where ever you go you'll always find people that really like you, people that like you only a bit and those that pretend to like you and those that don't pretend to show that they don't like you. God created us all even though He knew we were going to hurt Him, He did it anyway, why? because firstly, He's a God of His Word and secondly, He created us because He has so much love (let me say for instance, haven't you ever come across people that make things e.g. chairs etc but they just don't throw them away, the person would rather keep what they made? Why? Love), for us.
But now that is why God created earth because He wants the devil to test us and for our love for God to grow while on this earth so that when we go to Heaven He WILL NOT test us again. The angels also betray God that in the end He'll clean out the earth as well as Heaven of everyone that do not love HIm.
We are given so many chances in life by God to turn our lives around but we just don't care and then in the end we blame God; God doesn't love me enough, God doesn't exist, if God is so loving why will He creat hell and so on but we never stop to think that He has done so much for us already.
God loves us so much that He gave us choices, choices to choose between right and wrong, to choose between Him and the Devil, to choose between Hell and Heaven and in the end when we make the wrong choices whom do we blame? God. What would you prefer, for God to have given you choices and make your own decisions or for God to have created you in such a way that it's a MUST to worship Him?
There is nothing wrong with God, He's still the same loving God that created us, the fault lies with US and OUR WRONG CHOICES.
The devil always catches us in his traps with our, "why" questions and it's through those questions that he feeds us more lies. The CHOICE lies within your hands.

Jesus was with God before He created the earth
He had a plan for humanity before it
Its an unsolved mystery
God doesnt want us to burn in hell
Hell is built for Satan and his FOLLOWERS
God uses people to try to help other people that Satan must be trying to get or already have
I am a beleiver, a follower of the Holy God Almighty

God knows everyting, right? Including who is going to hell BEFORE he even creates them. No one asked to be created, and certainly no one asked to go to hell, so where do you see choice in this equation? You might as well be a wind up toy. Out of an infinite numer of possible peoples god COULD have created he chose this group, knowing what each and every person would do (Hitler, Stalin, North Korea, Satan). He chooses the actors in his play, and there is no deviation from the script, my friend. He knows ALL before it happens. And if he knows everything HE is ever going to do, can he really ever change his mind since he knew he was going to change his mind an infinity ago? If you couldn't change your mind would you consider yourself to have free will. Would you even have enough free will to consider whether or not you had free will?

I don't think I've ever read a verse stating that angels have no free will. Lucifer clearly did. A third of heaven's legions also choose to follow him in his rebellion. Psalm 8:5 states that God made him (mankind) a little lower than the angels. Why would He have given a lower creature free will, but the angels in His presence? Every recorded act of Satan in scripture points to a free will-- his temptation of Eve, of Jesus, etc. The angels who are still in God's service (Gabriel, Michael, etc.) were created to for that purpose and have chosen to fulfill it.

The answer depends on your perspective of religion. Hinduism, Christianity, etc will all have at the root a different response.
I will take the stance that you are asking this as a Christian in general. The simplist answer will be Free Will. God in Christian allows for free will, this is why praying for a person to love you is not a realistic prayer as it is truely up to the person to make their own decisions. The better prayer would be to pray for the person see all that you have to offer and see that you have the qualities that they want in a life partner.
Similarly, fighting, war etc, are in the hands of those who wage the battles. God does not intervene in matters involving free will.
Hope this helps.

This is a complicated matter.
The angels were created with free will, just as we all were.
We all have the ability to choose our own destiny. Satan chose his, and now he has to live with himself, and with the consequences of his choice.
Adam freely chose to throw in with Satan, so we, the offspring of Adam, have our own choices to make, and our own problems to deal with.
If you really want to get to the bottom of this, it's unlikely you can do it in this forum. It's going to take some serious study to arrive at the whole truth.
I have a CD available on this exact subject that truly does take you through it "by the numbers" so it becomes much easier to fully understand.
Send me an email with an address and the CD is yours.

He didn't create Satan the way he is. Satan became the way he is and he is lying to people all over the world with small brains like yours...... And God gives all people free will cause if He made them all love Him what kind of love would it be if it was forced.
