No, my friend. God made us and it is much like a radio with him. He turns it on or off.
What I mean by this is that he did not know Adam and Eve would sin because there was no reason for him to believe that Satan, the inventor of the lie, original seed of doubt would betray him and deceive Eve, where she in turn deceived Adam.
What if things were different where when Adam learned of what Eve did, he cried and cried because he loved her so very much, but in the end, did not hesitate and went to his Heavenly Father and told Jehovah just what his wife Eve had done? What if....?
But unfortunately, Adam went ahead and sinned also, then he and Eve tried to clothe themselves with fig leaves and hide amidst the Garden of Eden. God would have more than likely destroyed Eve at that time and made Adam a new wife, but no....Satan, the resister, went after the weaker sex, Eve, deceived her and she in turn deceived Adam as he allowed himself to be deceived.
God did not fathom at that time in creation, that the couple would disobey him. He is like a radio. You turn it on when you want to hear the music and turn it off when you do not. Stop trying to find blame in Jehovah God. Furthermore, if he had known that the pair would sin and Satan would have done such a horrible thing, would he have set any of them together in the face of the earth?
Now however, this is why Jehovah has said multiple times in the Bible that he regretted he made mankind and set them upon the earth, thus Soddom and Gomorrah where he destroyed the ones in this city, then remember the times of Noah?---where he destroyed all bad men in the world except Noah and his family, and some animals? He still knew there was imperfection but he also knew that right after Adam and Eve sinned that he had to immediately implement a plan, a Seed, that would redeem all of mankind and pay back what the "first Adam" had lost for us. That seed is Jesus.
I can't give you the quick fix, ICYHOTT, but what your questioning here and wanting answers for will require studying and acquiring accurate knowledge on your part. I would ask that you take the courage and call upon a kingdom hall in your area to the Service Overseer and ask that you have some study time to meet with him. Write your questions down and have them fresh in your head. If your heart is in the right place Jehovah will help you to understand and realize just what happened in Eden and how come as you say, Jehovah didn't stop it before it "got so bad".
Coming here to this forum you're looking for the quick fix and my friend, there is no quick fix about anything in life, especially accurate knowledge about Jehovah God and His standards.
Do you have the courage? If so, now's the time to act on it. Bless you.

If you are talking about people born with defects, I have always wandered that even though I do believe in God. They are the nicest people you would ever be around though. They get along with everyone. Maybe God wanted to throw in some people that don't argue and to brighten up the world

God made all things good, but with the potential for corrupting or staying the same
the Bible says God made the world for His glory, I would speculate that God's mercy and love might be displayed more strongly in a world which is fallen and in need of redemption... mercy through the cross being a chief means of God bringing glory to Himself

God will never be defected. Satan already tried it when he tricked Adam and Eve into sinning...he failed, satan thought he defected God when Jesus was killed....failed again, because Jesus rose from the dead himself. He'll try it again to defect God in the future, but he'll fail! You might want to wait around and see, you might learn something!

It says he's not so infallible or omnipotent after all.
I'm glad I'm a heathen -- I don't need the oxymoronic invisible sky dude to live a proper life.

I often make things I know are going to be defecated. It's how we enjoy them during the journey that counts

1.-You wouldn't. The whole idea of asingular deity creating w/o motivation is unrealistic.
2.-God is needy.
