Some believe that because there is evil in this life that God either (a) does not care, or (b) that God does not exist. Which of the following do you agree with?
My brother-in-law (an unbeliever) posted the above.
I responded the following:
And they didn’t prevent men from killing the Savior of the world.
What you are referring to is often referred to as “the problem of evil.”
Changes to Policy will not prevent evil. It only allows those who have a monopoly on violence to make the rules.
Read Rothbard’s “Anatomy of the State.” Like you Rothbard was an Atheist, only he did not make government his god.
I believe in Prayer. And I believe in God, the Son, and the Holy spirit.
I believe evil exists. And I believe God permits evil to preserve free-will. For without free-will, there cannot be the opposite of evil.
Prayer changes us. Ask and your Father in Heaven is listening.
If there is no God, then nothing matters. Human life does not matter. But you do matter. And what individuals freely choose to do matters.
Atheists will blame God (who they claim does not exist) when things like this happen.
Those who have made their politics their religion will cry out to false gods to save them.
Don’t remove what is good, because of the evil done by some. And don’t give the corrupted more power over others, though they make promises to you that they cannot keep.
God allowed evil to brutally kill Jesus, so that all may see the love of God, but not all will see. And for many, a stumbling block (1 Corinthians 1:23).
I’m not here to Bible-thump. I speak these truths so that some may listen. Government will not solve “the problem of evil.” Only God conquered death and sin, and by His grace, so can the fallen human race. But, He does not force you to be good (which would not be a choice at all).
God created us in His image. I know you have heard this, but what does it mean? It means the Creator gave us the ability to create. What we do with this gift can be used to glorify God or used for evil purposes. It means that the One who is Love, created us to also love and to be loved. What we do with this gift can be put into practice or can be rejected.
I define “evil” as anything that is not of God’s desired will, which is different from God’s permissive will. If you would like to dive deeper into the theology behind why evil exists, I would start here.
The answer to the problem of evil is not rejecting God and embracing government. It may seen pragmatic. It may feel efficacious and give you a sense of self-purpose, but it is disordered and dare I say “evil.”

Peace to all,
Government, Caesar must too render to God, I believe,

Peace to all,
OMNILogically evil comes from Choice. From the tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil comes to Adam and Eve through the creation of choice and love, created from choice, to love or not to love and choosing love creates through all generalizations the loss of mortal eternal life away from the Tree of Life. Lords and Gods Jesus and Mary, become to earth from the Powers of The Word becomes Flesh conceived in all form Family Powers becoming alive as personal Gods in being living inside of all mankind, angels, all creation through the flesh becoming The Christ for all creation becoming again from powers of The entire “Sophia” Family wisdom of God in The New Adam from Spirit Incorruption through The New Eve co-Resurrection through the flesh becoming immaculate from powers of the the Divine Family Spirit through the created souls of all becoming in the created flesh for all mankind saving too angels, all creation becoming One Body for all through the Christ becoming again in all One Holy Spirit Family One God in being Love fulfilled, loving only and loving with only the most love through both natures, Spirit and Life, God and Flesh becoming again in all One Divine Spirit Family One God in being, OMNILogicalGod, I believe.
According to the blog OMNILogicalGod.com, the theological framework is centered on a reimagining of traditional Christian concepts of the Holy Spirit, the Trinity, and the process of salvation. The following are examples of how OMNILogical Theology is applied to scripture and doctrine.
Interpretation of the Trinity
OMNILogic sees God The Holy Family as the Holy Spirit One God in being becoming again a single God in three persons, from the Father through the Mother for the Son becoming the Christ through all creation becoming again in all One Divine Family One God in being through two natures Spirit and Life through the One Body of Christ. OMNILogical theology frames the Trinity as an undfefiled spiritual family preexisting that eventually returns to a Fulfilled two natures faith and morality Family through two natures.
Interpretation of the Holy Spirit
The Holy Spirit is not a person but Teh Holy Family Preexiting, i believe. From three Gods preexisting From The Father through The Mother for the Son becoming logically through the Christ for all creation becoming again One Family becoming again in all the Trinity but is given a more central role in the transformation and unification process.
Peace always,
Stephen
