Boy are you opening up a can of worms with this question...
From a theological perspective--this means that in order for God to create humanity to show mercy, He must have INTENDED (or even purposed) there to be a "Fall of Mankind."
I do not think that is the case. What I believe (and it will probably spurn more questions) is God created humanity:
1) to manifest His own glory in creation & to be glorified by His creation, and
2) to bestow His goodness upon rational creatures who could acknowledge and enjoy this goodness.

But this, of course, is just my personal opinion.
Enjoyed a lot!
