Ive seen this question too much...
And yes, again, the Perfect God did create a perfect universe, a perfect paradise for perfect humans to live.
Because of human perfection, they were not like robots who would do what they are programmed to do when a button is pushed.
Adam's disobedience did prove that God made him perfectly...not as humans without choices but humans with perfect capacity to choose...

God did create a perfect universe with a perfect man who pleased Him until the perfect man Adam chose to disobey God. That one act of disobedience, of rebellion against God (the One who owns the universe and made Adam) caused the perfect man to become imperfect and lose his close fellowship with God. God could have destroyed Adam and Eve,( his wife who also found "guilty"because of her part in getting Adam to sin) and started the human race all over again but God in His mercy and love gave them the opportunity to not be destroyed but to be forgiven and have another chance. God then presented them with the need to come before Him with a "peace" offering-the blood of a lamb to "cover" their now imperfect state. This imperfect state is now in the whole human race-there is no one perfect who has never done anything wrong. The good news of the Bible is that through accepting the spotless blood of Jesus, the Lamb of God, we can once again be restored to obedience and fellowship with God and can receive the free gift of eternal life.

God did create a perfect world with perfect people who pleased him. We just screwed up.

He did, have you read the book of Genesis?
Aren't you, being a flawed human a little frightened to talk about God in such a manner.

Obviously...you are missing the point, God's plan wasn't for or about perfection. Could go on to explain but I still don't think you'll get it.

yes,i agree with you!and since"He"knows the outcome why did he do it in the first place?!millions of people have suffered and died,yet god doesn't notice!
of course He does tell us:"and a little while longer and death will be no more,neither will mourning nor outcry,nor pain be anymore,the former things have passed away!"is there a grand plan he has for us,and all those people who have suffered and died that they will see "a new earth?"

God absolutely could have it was his plan to bring forth righteous man through man's free will accepting of the atonement he provided. God is bringing forth a perfect creation. He is not finished yet. We are not the finished product of God's creation.

GOD probably did - and was quickly BORED.
Then after a millisecond or a millennium or two GOD made our existence and presto GOD is not BORED - he's IGNORED.
So GOD may be IS sitting next to you on the cross town bus....

Who said that the universe wasn't perfect? We are now made perfect through Jesus Christ because the choice we made messed us up. Geez
