Why haven’t God removed the lusts, anger from all people already?

So no one would commit the adultery, murder etc.

Also, if God drop the foods, drinks from sky—by the magical power—every day, no one would get starved.

By doing these, most problems will be solved and most people will be saved by the merciful God.

Why no?

Because sex, eating, and drinking, when rightfully ordered, are all good things. They are gifts from God. Why should God take these gifts away from us because we pervert them? And we should also keep in mind that mana rained down from the sky for the Jews, but they still complained.

Life is constant tests and quizes. Choices between good and evil blessings and curses. In the end, few pass the tests

I think we’ve been over this before, needy1, but God is not a magician up in the sky solving all our problems.

We’re here to work through our problems ourselves and learn from the experience, not to have a heaven on earth where everybody just gets fed by God every day and has no faults and no problems.

Do you ever perhaps consider just accepting God and the world the way they are, instead of constantly questioning, “Why does God do this? Why doesn’t God do that? Why doesn’t he do this other thing instead? Why doesn’t he do things my way?”

God has a plan and it’s not our place to know all of it yet.
 
Because without such things, we would not have free will. God wants us to choose Him freely.

As Tis_Bearself wisely said, God is not a magician. Adam and Eve screwed up. A wise priest once told me, God’s got a plan and it’s all good. This world is full of hatred, lust, sin and anger because God wanted us be able to choose, without the free will he gave us, we would be robots.
 
Adam and Eve screwed up nothing, the event of the “fall” designed/ planned by God and He predestined it from all eternity.

God caused their “fall” and they freely chosen their “fall.”

CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: EVIL
“We cannot say without denying the Divine omnipotence, that another equally perfect universe could not be created in which evil would have no place.”

www.newadvent.org/cathen/05649a.htm

310 But why did God not create a world so perfect that no evil could exist in it?
With infinite wisdom and goodness God freely willed to create a world in a state of journeying towards its ultimate perfection, 314 through the dramas of evil and sin. – So He had to CREATE in this world the dramas of evil and sin.

As we see above, if sin would be contrary to the purpose and intention of God He would created this world in which evil would have no place.

God willed and created in this world the dramas of evil and sin for good reason, to convert our sins into greater good, which is to make us well informed, battle-hardened glorified saints.

CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA Divine Providence explains;

“His wisdom He so orders all events within the universe that the end for which it was created may be realized.

He directs all, even evil and sin itself, to the final end for which the universe was created.”

Evil He converts into good (Genesis 1:20; cf. Psalm 90:10); and suffering He uses as an instrument whereby to train men up as a father traineth up his children (Deuteronomy 8:1-6; Psalm 65:2-10;

Nor would God permit evil at all, unless He could draw good out of evil (St. Augustine, “Enchir.”, xi in “P.L.”, LX, 236; “Serm.”

Evil, therefore, ministers to God’s design (St. Gregory the Great, op. cit., VI, xxxii in “P.L.”,

.
311 For almighty God, . . . because he is supremely good, would never allow any evil whatsoever to exist in his works if he were not so all-powerful and good as to cause good to emerge from evil itself.177

324 Faith gives us the certainty that God would not permit an evil if he did not cause a good to come from that very evil, by ways that we shall fully know only in eternal life.

God bless
