No, what I mean is WHY did he create evil?

Why did god feel that evil was necassary for his creation?

Couldn't he have created a perfect world? Oh, that's right, that garden of eden thing, so in fact the world has evil to punish us for our original sin?

Is that right? Have I got that figured out? Or do you have another reason for the existence of evil and why god allows it?

I'm serious Andrew, no fun intended NOR implied here.

Did I just figure it out?

Alamo-girl explained it. The verses in post 4130 also explain it. You can't have a drawing on white paper without darker lines. Without evil we would have no free choice.
