God is omnipotent, i.e. He can create or destroy or do anything He wants.
God is omniscient, i.e. He knows what happened, happens and will happen, and everything about the world He created.
With the powers He has, He:
Intentionally created humans that would fall for apple trick (as an omniscient being, He knew in advance they will)
Intentionally created Satan to set the scene
Dramatically exiled humans from heavens as if it’s their fault (knowing full well it’s His work, not theirs)
So, instead of just making a swarm of loyal creatures, he decided to be playful and make those creatures eternally ashamed of themselves, struggling to earn His approval even when He actively made their lives miserable through cataclysms, genocides, and all sorts of calamities.
He’s literally a celestial “why are you hitting yourself?” bully, expecting to bully billions of people into servitude.
It makes more sense from the Gnostic mythological perspective. When you frame the Old Testament God as a Trump-type character who ignorantly claims to be all-knowing, all-seeing, all-powerful, and the only God, because he really doesn’t know any better, then the behavior you see in the Old Testament kind of tracks.
And if gayness is wrong, why did he make his creatures (non-human) participate in it? Homosexuality has been documented in thousands of species around the globe.
Because only humans are intentionally and thoroughly engineered after the God himself, the rest is decorations and game, obviously.
do not ask why God has urine and semen coming from the same place, where did He take inspiration for a woman and why the hell did He create periods, or a million other curious questions
It gets so so much worse once you unpack this.
Consider these two points:

Fair enough
A lot of the Christian god seems to be very human for being a “higher power.”
