Let's look at that one part of your response more closely - "God just didn't want them to be like Him."
That's understandable. But it raises some concerns.
Here are facts:
- god created the heavens and the earth
- god created adam
- god created eve
- god commanded them to not eat from the tree
- god knew they would eat from the tree
- they ate from the tree
god knew, beforehand, that they would eat from the tree. It wasn't even a fair test. It was just part of god's "plan". To make it worse, he chastises A&E and curses the serpent for doing things exactly as he had planned.
And that is what i call a incompetent creator, it's more or less a child knowingly making a mistake.
