[IDIOTIC DRIVEL SNIPPED]



Over the two millennia since Christ died, there have been thousands of Christian scholars- named and unnamed- who have wrestled with scripture, and with the very issue you've mentioned here. Though you might not know it, the problem of evil (as you likely know it) is known to theologians as theodicy. Now, theodicy isn't exactly the question "Why does evil exist." Theodicy, as defined by the American Heritage Dictionary, is "a vindication of God's goodness and justice in the face of the existence of evil." Phrased another way, theodicy as a field of study is the vindication of God against those who would use the existence of evil to question his perfect attributes.


So you see, the greatest minds in Christian history- men who have spent their entire lives becoming educated enough in scripture to have serious conversations about good and evil- decided that the only way to approach the problem of evil is to defend God against those who would wield it against Him and His followers. Extraordinarily educated and divinely inspired men realized that the question "What about evil?" is essentially meaningless in light of an omniscient and omnipresent Creator. They concluded that the only productive way to proceed with their studies was to use what they learned against those who would raise the existence of evil as a point in their argument against God. They classified theodicy as a subset of apologetics- a branch of study itself concerned with the spirited defense of Christianity against all comers.


Yet you dare come here, to this forum, where some more of the greatest minds in Christian history are gathered and expect to join a millennia-old conversation by hurling around profane and childish language in ALL CAPS? You expect us to take you seriously? For shame.
