A. For a thing to be perfect is one thing, and seeing it as perfect is another. Although God saw it as good and perfect, you cannot see it as such unless you have the same eye to appreciate it as well as God does. You may mistake an angel created by God for the snake, or God may have created the snake as a means to make everything good.
If God created everything out of nothing, all his creations are also nothing in essence whether good or bad, whether an angel, or a snake. What is the difference between good and bad if they are nothing in substance?
