You see, there are at least 2 flaws:
1). Essentially, if a god created sin and good, he is to test the
human? But does human allow your god to judge? I certainly don't,
unless the punish and reward are both tangible.
2). Yes, the process of human experience is lengthy, but this is a
process of mankind growing from naive to a learned. And from young to
old which is a life time. With each passing day, we are more mature
and wiser....in a real world when experience is the guidance.
But your concept of the god's temporal perspective is not
real....merely imagination and close to a philosophical perspective,
at best.

I find that you want to cling onto your god and therefore you try to
speak in justification while ignoring the true and realistic material
world where the human experience pain, love, eat, drink, work and all
other physical matters.

The strong will always win, since he will always dirty his hand (never
dirty his mind).
The weak will always loose, since he will always dirty his mind (never
dirty his hand).
