Is there actually "free will" without evil?
-
why not? you can choose to eat a banana or an apple, both perfectly non evil
-
I will die on a hill that says a banana is more good than an apple.
Making the apple relatively more evil on the scale from good to evil.
Others may prefer an apple. But I guess that is their free will to choose so 😉

I mean there was that whole 'garden of eden' thing with the apples...
-
Wasn't the forbidden fruit in the garden of eden originally a fig or date or olive or something? It was changed to apple in the later translations. Something like that .
-
I thought it was a pomegranate

I'm allergic to bananas. But I'm pretty wicked so this tracks.

The free will is more about choosing to follow god or not. So if everything god does is good and everything they want you to do is good, you have no choice but to do those things. So you live in a perfect world but are a puppet.

An all-powerful god wouldn't be affected by such logic. They could have changed the rules to allow for free will without evil.
