Not necessarily, just man's idea of God. The Bible is not the alleged deity.

Do you suppose that He intended lucifers rebellion or was hoping that He would have to allow Himself to be nailed to a cross? There are consequences to free will. If you were half as smart as you pretend to be you should have figured that out for yourself.
Explain your failure to do so.

I am sure there are, assuming one believes in angels and all the rest of these myths. But, as carefully explained to you at least twice where this topic is concerned, the 'evil' or 'misfortune' your deity specifically admits to in Isiah is of the
natural
type - a term used to describe suffering and pain that occurs in the natural world and is not caused by humans through any misuse of free will. Examples of natural evil include: Earthquakes, Tsunamis, Floods, Disease, Genetic defects, and Animal suffering.

Without sadness, you wouldn't know happiness. Without misery, you couldn't experience joy. Without fear, you wouldn't appreciate security. And so forth.

If your aim here is to provide an example of what the worst, most pointless sock imaginable might look like, you've succeeded.

Big Bang isnt in the Bible.
That is because primitive peoples had to make up stories to explain things, hence the numbers of creation myths around the world. These days science has given us more evidenced based ideas and theories for reality.
Incidentally, Muslims claim the BB is in the Qu'ran.

No, it is more that science and the scientific method, consistently gives us better explanations for things. That is not to say that that science can ever have all the answers of course. And indeed there are some things that science has nothing to say about, notably metaphysics.

who are we to judge perfection?
look at it this way, a person, place or thing doesn't exist in a vacuum. It exists in a system. Does it have a role in that system?
It's more like the system is "perfect" and the things you are judging are part of it.
