This idea was first presented by the gnostics who were one of (if not the very first) Christian heresies to be condemed by the Church. So I wouldn't dedicate too much thought power to that one. You can read all about it with a quick Google search.
Also, if you read between the lines, the entire Genesis account of the first humans' relation to God and their environment portrays a father bringing up his beloved children. Adam recieved everything from his Father including his perfect companion. God can do all things, yet he always had Adam present to cooperate in the work he was doing; just like any good father would suffer through his child's first attempts to use tools or cook a meal, drive a car, etc.
