Hell yeah! It's like that Simpson's episode when Mr. Burns builds a big shade to block the suns light so that people will use more electricity supplied from his nuclear power plant. Christians create a climate of fear knowing that they have a stranglehold on the market of that which alleviates that fear.

Salvation is asking for forgiveness from God, and telling him that you want him to guide your life. It is a wonderful transformation and the beginning of a very exciting journey through life here on earth and through eternity with God. It is not a solution it is forgiveness and a decision to follow Christ. Salvation can never be a problem or create a problem. Nice try though.

God allowed Adam and Eve to take the fruit if they wanted to disobey Him. If we had no free will, there would be no need for salvation, but God wants us to choose Him of our own free will, so that meant He had to give us free will. Salvation is a backup in case they chose to disobey.

No, the plan of salvation is to draw out those who are willing to serve by faith the God who created them. to be redeemed through Jesus Christ from this perverted universe. God did not create sin. sin is a result of perverting God's perfection.

Yes. As Dan Barker writes in 'Losing Faith in Faith': "Sin is a problem of Christianity's own making. Would you buy a Band-Aid from somebody who cut you in order to sell you a Band-Aid?"

No. Salvatio is the prize for right living. Sin is the problem of its own making.

Yep.
God screwed up and had to improvise. Predictably, he chose a violent act to provide redemption.
Sick myth.
