The first commandment says to put no God before/above the Christian God but it doesn't say put no God equal to him.
God is actually a female entity and she is to be worshipped, pleased but ultimately she respects dominance and doesn't want to be feared.
It's a complex relationship that I and God have. I am cocky, think myself to be a god amongst men and see more of Satan in myself than Jesus. Despite all this, God loves me; she gets excited watching me dominate you all like I'm a cat and you're vermin. It is because I am so ready to become god that god enjoys me best.

Analogy: Trolley Dilemma
Summary: Suppose there is a trolley, and it is going to hit five workers. You can change the track and hit some other person (Person A). From Person A's perspective, he/she sees you intentionally switch the track and kill him/her.
Sometimes, we cannot see what would have been. We see our current state.

Why would God create evil? Why? What is the point? What good does this do for them or us? Why does God not help or fix it? God helps people who do not need it, just want it!
Surely an all-powerful magical being could do this. If they can, but not willing to, they are malevolent. God could have created free-will without us killing people. If this magical God wanted to get rid of evil, why not "make" us not have the temptation and be biologically made for that. I know you believe in a female God so the rest of this is irrelevant to you.
In the Bible, this God killed every animal and plant and insect except for two of every species and killed all humans except eight (from my memory). This God divided the humans by creating languages (not the only thing that divides us but it does for a stupid reason). God "created" us to be the way we are and the humans that were "reaching" for "heaven". We really do not have good acts from him in the Bible. If anything, God is the villain in this world.

God 'created evil' because to create anything conscious and living, you need to give it something to be evil for. What did I just say? I said, if you're a living, conscious being, you fight for two reasons: Pleasure or Pain. You want to maintain pleasure and avoid pain. Now, I make 2 living beings, sure they can have sex be happy together alright alright.
Now I make a man, a man and a woman and the chick just aint that into open relationships... Evil. So I add another female but both females like the same dude, oops. It's not easy being God.
You think you know what god should or could do but who are you to judge him? God in the Christian religion tried to make his play world and yeah sure, he wasn't the most strategic of the gods... He just kind of said 'you're all sinners, I've screwed up but I'll obviously forgive you since I admit it's my fault.'
He's a funny god, I really like him but he's just not the real one.
