Why did God create an imperfect world?

Answer: because man, one of God's creation has the capacity to do wrong....
Thanks again @Budaatum
God created an imperfect world because man has the capacity to do wrong ? undecided

That makes as only as much sense as your claim that the Omenani is the Jewish Torah. undecided
Nonsense! undecided

Now I know you got no sense...

Man is not a perfect being by creation...because he can do wrong....

God gave mankind his divine laws of existence.

The jews compiled and called it The Torah

The igbos complied it and called it Omenani

The Indians compiled it and called it the Vedas...

But you are just carried away by the Jewish one because they personalized it...

When will you ever have sense?

Genesis is an example of an "antiquities", as the Romans called this type of literature, a popular genre telling of the appearance of humans and the ancestors and heroes, with elaborate genealogies and chronologies fleshed out with stories and anecdotes.[15] The most notable examples are found in the work of Greek historians of the 6th century BC: their intention was to connect notable families of their own day to a distant and heroic past, and in doing so they did not distinguish between myth, legend, and facts.[16] Professor Jean-Louis Ska of the Pontifical Biblical Institute calls the basic rule of the antiquarian historian the "law of conservation": everything old is valuable, nothing is eliminated.[17] This antiquity was needed to prove the worth of Israel's traditions to the nations (the neighbours of the Jews in the early Persian province of Judea), and to reconcile and unite the various factions within Israel itself.[17]

Describing the work of the biblical authors, John Van Seters wrote that lacking many historical traditions and none from the distant past, "They had to use myths and legends for earlier periods. In order to make sense out of the variety of different and often conflicting versions of stories, and to relate the stories to each other, they fitted them into a genealogical chronology."[18]

David Adams Leeming describes it as the creation myth[a] of both Judaism and Christianity.

Note that choosing between obedience and rebellion didn't make Adam imperfect. NO!
He chose his own path.
What does perfection means?
It doesn't mean infallible but the perfect body that can do everything without a single defect but that doesn't mean such a person can't choose between right and wrong.

Adam choose to become a rebel and that's why a curse was laid on him by his Creator, it's this curse that brought all the defects which later led to Adam's oldage, sickness and death.
Ever since then all the children that comes out from Adam has inherited those three things:
OLDAGE
SICKNESS
DEATH.
Now due to these defects Adam's descendants had no option than to restrict all their plan within their lifespan, that's why greed and selfishness set in otherwise most humans would have been nice people if there's nothing like oldage, sickness and death.
So it's the defect that we call imperfection not the ability to choose between right and wrong! smiley

God could not sin, because he could not be disobedient to himself. But since sin is impossible for him, it is no more a mark of achievement for him to be free of sin than it is a mark of achievement for a rock to be unable to move. It's merely a matter of definition.

According to the Bible story of creation, was the world created to suit man or was man created to maintain a previously created world? undecided

The answer to the above question is simple so let's not convolute this in any way. undecided

@Kobojunkie

It is not a crime to admit you dont know. You will learn and add to whatever thing you think you know....

It is not a do or die affair...please,
You need to come down from your high horse...

Earth is not a perfect creation because man who is part of it was created with the ability to do wrong...

Which is God's plan all along, he did it so that we can learn from it and grow.

He only gave us his laws to guide us..so we make the best of the experience. At the end,our breath( or consciousness) returns to him and becomes one with it and our body back to dust and becomes one with the earth.

God is the totality of the consciousness of the universe...
Re: Why Did God Create An Imperfect World? by sonmvayina(m): 11:53am On Mar 27, 2022
Sin was part of God's plan from the beginning..whether you accept it or not

It was intended for us to learn from it and grow.
