"Is God willing to prevent evil, but not able? Then he is not omnipotent.
Is he able, but not willing? Then he is malevolent.
Is he both able and willing? Then whence come evil?
Is he neither able nor willing? Then why call him God?"
-Epicurus
and don't say that bull-shite about evil being a test of faith. Unless you mean Faith Hill... I'd like to test her...
