Freewill, therefore is the gift of Satan.

So wrong.
Free will could not have been MADE unless it was there to be USED.
God told Adam & Eve "that they would DIE the day they ate of the Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil." Satan lied to them and said, "no, you will not, you will become like God instead." They chose to believe in the lie and the liar, so in effect, they placed Satans words higher than Gods words, making Satan their new God.
As far as "trapping them in a Paradise." Well that's one trap I could live with. For your information, no one was trapped. Paradise was God's way of showing them how the "rest" of the world was to be converted to when they had children and descendants, and moved out of the garden. After all, God told them explicitly, "be fruitful and multiply and subdue the earth and have dominion over the earth" so it was their job to subdue the earth, making it a paradise, too. Unfortunately, things got derailed and God cursed the Earth so that it would make it hard to give up its goods.

Your trapped way to deep inside of a book. There is no satan. We do have free will, cause we choose to be bad or good. God sent us to this Earth to become great individuals and come home wiser.

God did give man free will. We have the free will to obey God's commandments or be deceived by the traps and lies of Satan. God placed Adam in a perfect place, but Adam and Eve were deceived.

that's a little far fetched, don't you think? And besides, after Eve ate from the apple that's when free will came in to play, and that's when God sent them OUT of the Garden and told them never to return. So we are not trapped in a garden. Get your facts straight!
