One persons beautiful is another persons ugly mate, unless you made a perfect partner for everyone on the planet. What about the beautiful ones who are assholes and unable to attract a mate because of there personality? They'd be miserable too.

* free will is not about sin nor choosing your own "god"… free will is about the freedom to choose… from choosing to do good or evil:
"I call heaven and earth to witness against you this day, that I have set before you life and death, blessing and curse; therefore choose life, that you and your descendants may live,"
Deuteronomy 30:19
* we have the freedom to choose… but since God loves us, He gives the right recommendation: for us to choose life… even the law in the New Testament is about freedom:
"But he who looks into the perfect law, the law of liberty, and perseveres, being no hearer that forgets but a doer that acts, he shall be blessed in his doing."
James 1:25
There's a game on the regular Nintendo called Dragon Warrior. At the end of the game, you finally confront the nemesis; The Dragon Lord. He gives you an ultimatum: either join him and become his second-in-command, or a duel to the death. But if you join his side, he kills you and the game is over. Philosophers call that a "Hobson's choice", or the illusion of freewill, when in relaity the "decision" has already been fixed. Another example would be a two-headed coin.
Some people think ^that's what Biblical freewill actually is. A Hobson's choice.
