You are misunderstanding of what christians mean by free will and heaven. Free will doesn't require the ability to commit evil. God has free will, yet God cannot sin. Likewise, christians believe that those in heaven retain their freedom but are no longer enslaved by sin. Being incapable of wanting evil isn't the same as being forced to do good. The argument assumes that christians believe every single evil in history was necessary and therefore justified while that's not what christianity teaches, God allowing something to happen doesn't mean He approves of it or couldn't have prevented it. Just becaue God permitted something doesn't mean it's justified. Bible states multiple times that things can be unjust or that the world we live in can be cruel. If God made a world where nothing bad could happen he'd just create a mouse utopia < 2nd point that I want to attack is your argument about developing our souls. Earthly life isn't necessarily about passing some test to earn heaven. It's about making choices, forming relationships, experiencing love, hardship, bunch of other things and freely responding to God. The the question about children ignores that christianity has never required someone to reach adulthood or experience suffering to be saved. Asking why God doesn't simply create Heaven from the beginning misunderstands the christian view of creation. Christianity doesn't teach that God created humanity because He needed to test us. It teaches that He created us out of love, with the intention of sharing existence and communion with him.< The biggest problem with the entire chart is that it assumes that if God permits suffering, then either suffering must be necessary or God is unjust, that in itself is an assumption but you just worded it like its some kind of a conclusion. You can certainly question why God permits particular evils, and the problem of evil is a serious philosophical question. However your chart doesn't solve it or disproves any christian belief. You present your objections like they are logical contradictions rather than what they are, objections.
