Did God have a choice?

Could it have been set up to be more fair?

I'm not sure that the penalty for sin and death is "fair". I feel that if it was "fair" Christ would not have died for our sins. I don't like that people go to Hell, I don't think it's a good thing. However, the scripture makes it clear what it takes to get to Heaven. Believe me I've been asking the same questions lately of God, haven't got the answers yet, but I don't know everything and won't. There was a man raptured into the third heaven during Pauls day in a vision. He probably still didn't know the answer to this question.
