Is this an example of a judgmental creator god's free will?   stance: yes, mankind is defective, prone to evil because of original sin & satan:
Man always has the freedom to do what he wants to do, but not what he should do.
Adam had the choice to do either good or evil. He chose evil. That choice damaged his relationship with God and resulted in an evil world. Now man still has freedom to do what he wants to to do. The problem is that man only wants to rebel and do evil. Look around for proof.
But God has a remedy for the evil. It is Jesus Christ.
Repent and trust in Him.
