How do you know that?
By definition, God is omnibenevolent and omnipotent. In other words, he wants evil not to exist and has the power to make it happen.

God, if he existed, wouldn't allow evil to exist. Therefore, God doesn't exist.
So that is your human thought, trying to say what a God thinks or feel, personally i do not know what a God think or feel, but i gain some understanding from all the reading i done from the teachings. But i dont put my words in what a God mean or like/dislike.By definition, God is omnibenevolent and omnipotent. In other words, he wants evil not to exist and has the power to make it happen.
In the first place... "God" created world.
In the second place... "He" added both "Good" and "Evil" into it.

NO, you cannot stop because its the world WITHOUT creatures. (Empty-world)I will stop you right here.
God could not possibly add evil to the world.
So you think this is what God think, you dont believe in existance of Gods, so it must be your own opinion and thoughtsIt is not merely my human thought.
It is what God is (or would be if he existed).

A world that was created on the demand of creatures.
Isaiah 45:6-7, for a Jewish and Christian view...I will stop you right here.

Isaiah 45:6-7, for a Jewish and Christian view...
In order that they know from the shining of the sun and from the west that there is no one besides Me; I am the Lord and there is no other. Who forms light and creates darkness, Who makes peace and creates evil; I am the Lord, Who makes all these.
From a Jewish translation.
You can read it how you like but that's what it says and it's interpreted by mainstream Judaism to mean exactly what it says.It is figure of speech.
Again your view and understanding other people will understand it differentlyIt is a matter of definition.
Any being that is not omnipotent, omniscient and omnibenevolent is not God, mas God wouldn't allow evil to exist.

It seems very clear you put you self in Gods place and say what a God can or can not do. By doing that you put your self above God, and no man can do that.What exactly is my view?
The definition or what follows from the definition?
No,
By God I simply mean God. Nothing else.
I have no idea what that has to do with what I have said. It doesn't matter if the world was created on the demand of creatures, God still could not create a world with evil.
Okay let me introduce you to my definition of God.My apologies, that doesn't help clarify for me. "God" in proper case means you are referencing a proper noun, which in English-speaking countries is nearly always a reference to the one-god of classical monotheism (aka, the Abrahamic religions). Do you mean to say that you are actually asking do gods - any god-concept from any culture - make mistakes? Because that's a very different question than asking about God.
Okay let me introduce you to my definition of God.
God: the one who has created all the things that we see all around us.
