I have been sick since yesterday, stuck in bed all day yesterday, and have only managed to reach my computer do to the help of modern medicine. So now it is a proper time for the "Whence Commith Evil?" thread.
So were does "evil" come from? And I am not speaking for human evil, I am speaking for natural disasters, sickness, and other things that are "evil" but not caused by humans. Why would your god create that? And if it wasn't your god who created it, who was it? And why doesn't your god simply stop it? And if your god is for some reason unable to stop disease, then why can modern medicine stop what your god can't? And if your god causes it, then why can modern medicine stop it? Is medicine more powerful than your god?
Assuming that we're discussing the Christan God we have to assume that he's omniscient (or else we've caught the bible in another gigantic lie), judging him by the laws of the United States that would make God an accomplice.
Evil is a human definition for something they don't like and shouldn't exist. It comes from the person, culture and environment. Stuff happens and then people slap labels on it. Therefore evil is a creation of human cognition along with god.
