I struggle with basic Christian theology. (Because I am dumb, illogical, and illiterate of course)

Yup, you read it right. I just don't have a fucking clue what I am talking about. Read all about it here

Theo, now that we have dealt with the issue of my ignorance, please enlighten me and everyone else as to what exactly the source of evil in the world is?

  1. He could just say God did not make the world with any evil in it, and he does not know the future (or at least the future choices of free creatures), so he didn't know there would be evil.

  2. Yes he could say that. But that would make God the biggest bumbling idoit in cosmic history. God having the maximal possible knowledge would at the very least know that the world would potientally be evil.

    There is also evil in the design of the world: parasites, natural disasters, disease, the violent food chain etc. It would really be impossible for God not to know that evil would occur in the world.
