Man's attempt to rule themselves independent of God has been exposed as a failure. Centuries ago faithful servants of God were inspired to write the same thing. King Solomon, renowned for his wisdom wrote:
Ecclesiastes 8:9) All of this I have seen, and I applied my heart to every work that has been done under the sun, during the time that man has dominated man to his harm .
Noted historian Jeremiah also concluded:
(Jeremiah 10:23) I well know, O Jehovah, that man’s way does not belong to him. It does not belong to man who is walking even to direct his step.
Jesus and his disciples knew that at a set time, God himself would establish a government in heaven to rule over the entire earth. The Bible calls this government God’s Kingdom and reveals that Jesus Christ has been appointed as its King. (Revelation 11:15) Since that Kingdom affects all humans, Jesus made “the good news of the kingdom of God” the main subject of his teachings. (Luke 4:43) He also taught his disciples to pray: “Let your kingdom come.” Why? Because under that Kingdom, God’s will is sure to be done in heaven and on earth.—Matthew 6:9, 10.

God's attempt to create a species that will worship him unconditionally and be nice to him surely is a colossal failure. Where did he go wrong? As the absolute creator he has to take the ultimate responsibility, not blame it upon his creation.
Man has been far more successful in creating Dog, who worships his master and honours his every command.
