RE: DEISM = ATHEISM
If there is a God, would He want us to be robots or to have freewill which means people doing good and sometimes doing bad?

Well, if you're talking about the mythical "YHWH", it didn't seem to like "freewill" too much for Adam & Eve or for Noah, or for Sodom & Gomorrah.
It all seems a bit slap-dash for something that's supposed to be "all knowing" and "all powerful".
How do you know what you do not know is mythical or not mythical?
REAL-TRUE-FACTS must be scientifically verifiable and or logically necessary (like NOUMENON).
Everything else is indistinguishable from pure imagination (myth).
How do you know that? You have nice theories that you call facts. I don't necessarily disagree with you. But you do not if your brain, your logic, your way of thinking, is pure imagination or not. So, you have faith in your God, your Savior, which you call REAL-TRUE-FACTS and you bow down to it. You swear to it. So, you can have fun with your religion.
I'm perfectly willing to consider your definition of "facts".
How do you personally distinguish "fact" from "fiction"?
Does it matter if I can't go with my gut?
Of course you can do as you please, but going with one's gut (to determine facts) is not a rigorous definition and informs no Uniform Standard of Evidence (USOE) to resolve any interpersonal conflicts regarding what exactly qualifies as "fact" for any particular individual gut.
