He knew, and chose to give us free will. The consequences of our collective free wills is what you see all around you.
He won't take it away, not even to stop something monsterous. The promise is he is with you always, and will dwell in you if you ask and that you will overcome this world.
No promises that anything would be easy or just like you want it to be.

God did have other plans for man. Man fell into temptation and because of his disobedience, ended up with this life. God, in His mercy sent man a saviour who taught
how to live and how to be saved from our sin. Many people believed and are saved from their sins. Many did not want to believe and are still fighting God because
they think they know better than the God who made them. God could not be happy with just the animals because they do not have a free will. They do not have a mind that can think and reason and believe. Man
had to be created because God is Love and needed to love man and wanted man to love and worship Him in return not because man had to, but because man chose to of his own free will. God knew everything that would happen and still made man because He loves us so much.

Yes, He knew exactly what would happen. Its all been a plan from the begining. You can look at it as if this is the way God can show use His mercy and grace. Otherwise, He couldn't.

We are animals. People just think that we are much better than them because we have evolved.
No one knows what God expected for sure.

The flaw with religion and faith is always the second guessing that often happens. Tis the flaw of superstition.

Our path in life is to learn to live by God's words and be worthy of going to Heaven. I know how hard it is to live and abide by His word. But I don't think we were destined to stay on earth for long because home is Heaven. If people blow up this planet - that isn't God's will. Thats because people made a lot of bad choices.

He knew it would happen, and he's always got a plan to restore us to righteousness. In the OT it was animal sacrifice.. In the NT it was Jesus' sacrifice.. And when Jesus returns it will be the end of the age, when everything and everyone who is evil will be thrown in the lake of fire for all eternity. Corruption never wins.

I believe God gave us this life to see if we would find our way back to him. We have choices we can make, we decide what those choices are, it is the choices we make as to how our lives turn out. I do believe he knew, why else would he have given Jesus to us to help us to get back into heaven?
