So, the world was created for benefit of humans, but they were deliberatly created so as to be liable to spoil everything by Falling (and Fall, as far as I can see, consisted of seeking knowledge); then the Creator Himself (or His son, depending on details of belief), an (rather the) omnipotent being, suffers in order to express His love and save fallen humanity that he created Himself as they are (save from what?), as if fixing a design flaw.

I can never cease to express my astonishment at such constructs. And yet, nice people like Jeff not only believe them sincerely, but believe that their own goodness (i.e. what we heathens call human qualities) have source external to them...
