Yes

If God is all-powerful, and also loving, how can he allow such an evil to exist?

Aha

I knew you were going there mate

I was just about to jump in Rodrigo

Ignorance, Mros. I came to my own descision AFTER 2 months of looking at both sides

Wow, 2 months

2 months

so much time

wow

What

It must have been agonizing

I spent 3 years

No,

St. Augustine spent 17 years before he converted.

I was saying I am not ignorant

If God is all knowing, he knew that the Devil would create evil. If God created the Devil, he also created evil. Unless he did not know it would happen.

Unless god was able to foresee that, and incorpate the free choice of the devil into his sovereign plan

Augustine when was he born Mros?

Would god be loving if he created robots with no free will

but that doesn't mean he wouldn't be able to use evil and turn it into good

Exactly

If man did not have free will it would be impossible for him to be good

Mro when was augustine born?

So evil is the same as good?

354

And what century would that be?

It's the 4th century

Did God know that the devil would create evil?

Yes.

Evil is that which does not elevate god as he should be

God made the being which made evil.

Thus, humanity would have turned to evil by turning away in shame and disobediance to god

Why would a loving God make a being which creates evil?

Would a loving god creating a reality where choice is not possible

Mros you realize they didn't have th evidence that contradicts the words in the bible

Yes.

>Implying the Bible contradicts

Really?

How loving to have no choice at all

Without free will man cannot be good
