Yes i believe so. According to me, I think it was God's plan so that mankind would be descended onto the earth to fulfill God's will.
This is really a great idea.

Yes I agree...each person is responsible for their own sins. The devil merely wispers and encourages people to do bad, but people can choose to ignore that and do good. So we may have influences - religious doctrines ask us to do good and the devil asks is to do bad; but human beings are responsible for themselves and what they do...otherwise it would not be right to punish sinners id they did not choose to win right?
I also agree that everyone is responsible for their own sin. That is the whole concept of free will as in we are free to make the choices we want are therefore are responsible for their choices.

Yes, but free will is not for us to live wild. That's why there are instructions that come with free will.

I believe if Adam and Eve had never sinned humanity would have definitely gone a different way. Jesus would not have had to come to earth and die for our sins, because I don't believe we would have sinned! I believe the reason we are born with sinful tendencies is because of Adam and Eve sinning. That is just my personal opinion. We do have free will and it is our decision to make. I still tell my children, "Every day when you get up you have one of two choices to make - you can do what is right, or you can do what is wrong. If you choose to take the wrong path, don't blame God for the potholes!"
I strongly agree.

I don't really agree to that, I wouldn't say that it was God's plan. I think if it was Hos plan, He wouldn't have made the garden of Eden to be so beautiful for mankind.

Sure, it would have been different. God knew, however, how things would go.

In Christianity, every "natural" person is a sinner and has the potential to sin. Sin is inherent in them, so evil resides in them. Whether there is an entity outside them or not, they themselves are subject to sin. So logically, the outside entity does not matter. The only outside entity that matters is the purging sacrifice.

I think God can not allow a temptation bigger than us to come our way. He already knows our faith.

Human nature is the greatest originator of sin. Any devilish influence is simply an amplifier. I think humanity would have discovered anyway.

Well this quite controversial and in this kind of situation we can only trust the Holy Spirit for inspiration.

This ia a good question
Many times we try to blame the evil in the world on the devil but we have free will too

The only thing God gave humans is the freedom to choose. We are born with sinful natures because Adam and Eve made the wrong choice. After being born with this nature God still gave us a choice, to choose good or bad

That is a very difficult topic to tackle, what's done is done, I don't see any need to think on how or what would have been, if the first man didn't commit sin.

If the devil had not deceived man, I think mankind would have gone a different way. I say so because of the story of Eden during the creation. However after man fell we got the sinful nature. WE could tell the difference between good and evil and have a choice o choose between those two.
