I'd argue that free will has made the world better in many ways.

Is free will not the origin of all evil?

If you had no free will but had a choice, would you take it even if it had the potential for evil?

"No free will" is very broad and can be twisted to mean anything. Just to be clear, in this context it simply means not having the ability to do evil. I would choose not to have the ability to do evil and the guaranteed entry into heaven. I would choose to have unempeechable trust from everyone.

What about times where inaction would be evil, and that by committing a small sin is for the greater good? To steal a loaf of bread for a starving family is a sin.
