Commentary:
The idea is that God planned the Bible in its entirety anyway, and had people (and His Son) play it out as players on His stage. Also, that he wrote it showing His goodness, His own readiness to believe in our abilities and desire to interpret His words. The Angel is able to relate to the imperfections of humanity, being a creation of God himself, and tries to help God understand this point of view.
(However, an overarcing humor is that it really doesn't matter what the Angel proposes, as God shown here as constant as a statue and graceful enough to recieve his servants' words, God would intuitively know the reaction He'd get and provoke it anyway as a test.)
In speaking the Angel only shows his own imperfection, his own fall from grace, as he cannot be as wholly innocent as the Lord.
Further more, says the Angel, God clearly recognises that man cannot interpret 10 laws, and so gives them 2 instead, a shortened version from His Son, Jesus. One could humorously postulate that Jesus was sent only to try to get the word of God across in a more easy to absorb fashion.
These ideas would be the basis for humor in the series, along with Lucifer still working for God, just helping Him seperate the good grain from the bad. Maybe I'm the only one who finds this funny. *shrug*
