Okay first I'd like to say, that I didn't read this from anti-mormon websites, I figured this out by myself.
My statement is, that God doesn't want/intend man to be like god.

Tree of the knowledge made man like god, genesis 3:5 it says : "for God doth know that in the day ye eat thereof, then your eyes shall be opened, and ye shall be as gods, knowing good and evil."

God says that man is not allowed to eat from the tree of knowledge. Genesis 2:16-17
16 And the LORD God commanded the man, saying, "Of every tree of the garden thou mayest freely eat;
17 but of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, thou shalt not eat of it.

Doesn't this mean, that God didn't want man to be "like god", knowing good and evil? If it doesn't, that means God's lying.
It is a sin wanting to be like God, that's what Satan wanted in the first place, to be like God.
