"""If a god creates anything that he considers evil then he is a dualist god. Creating the option of engaging in evil is creating evil."""



Einstein said once: If this being is omnipotent, then every occurrence, including every human action, every human thought, and every human feeling and aspiration is also His work; how is it possible to think of holding men responsible for their deeds and thoughts before such an almighty Being? In giving out punishment and rewards He would to a certain extent be passing judgment on Himself. How can this be combined with the goodness and righteousness ascribed to Him? [Out of My Later Years]


The bible, which is just literature of religion and philosophy in my opinion, states that God recognizes that he created evil.
