And how do you determine truth independent of man?
The presence of evil you describe as “alive and well” doesn’t refute the Biblical prophecy which defines Christ’s victory over Satan as absolute and final. In fact, it corroborates it.
Some "victory" it is that 2,000 years after "annihilating death" the evil is alive and well and yet this is corroborating Christ's "victory"?
“And how do you determine truth independent of man?”
Maybe I’m wrong. Maybe reality starts in our imaginations, and we project it out like a video player? (This won’t get you very far—see the history of human knowledge for reference.)
The Bible tells us there will be evil. I think you don’t know the events of Christ’s victory over Satan.
Remember—when you say God’s plan doesn’t seem like the way you would have preferred to set things up, this objection is not a factual refutation of Biblical doctrine. It’s merely your opinion that you don’t like the way things are going.
