Who are the wicked? If God were omnipotent and only wanted good, there would be no wicked.

Not surprising.

I found a picture of God/Adam/Jesus/Eve.

Now I know what this means.
[SIZE=2][/SIZE]Genesis 1:27
So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them.
Genesis 1:26-28
Male and female created he them; and blessed them, and called their name Adam, in the day when they were created.

Nice God. He would rather kill us than cure us.

Not much you can say about those lack of morals.

Thanks for telling us your God is a genocidal maniac without morals.

You do know that God is a reflection of your own heart right.
Or lack of in this case.

If humans or angels want to be wicked and they can't, they don't have free will.
