I didn't say it was. Whatever evil is works perfectly well in that context.

Well, the point is the two don't "co-exist" as evil isn't an existent entity. Is it like light/darkness. Darkness isn't an actual quantifiable thing but rather a lack of something, namely light. So it is with God. God, as the source of all Good doesn't "create" evil as it is not a quantifiable thing that can be created, but rather it is a lack of God.

Fine, define it however you like. If evil is the lack of god and nothing more, then an omniscient, omnipotent god who creates the lack of himself is evil at least in part.
