Sorry, but just because someone has an ancient Greek name doesn’t mean they actually framed a correct argument.
How should God prevent evil? By taking away our freedom? Then He would be a tyrant.
By killing us all? Then He would be an indiscriminate murderer.
By flying around and erasing all the consequences of our evil actions as soon as we do them? Then He would be preventing us from ever learning why we shouldn’t commit evil, and preventing us from ever maturing.
But I’m sure Epicurus has a greater imagination than God and could figure out some way that God could do the impossible, just to please Epicurus.
Regarding Epicurus:
Alvin Plantinga’s Free Will Defense of
God with regard to The Problem Of Evil
was successful.
Plantinga demonstrated that God could
not do the impossible such as create
square circles or make 2 + 2 = 7 and
could not create man with a Free Will
and at the same time prevent man from
using his Free Will to choose to do evil.
If you’re interested you can google
“Alvin Plantinga Free Will Defense Wikipedia”
and you will pull up the article.

By not creating such flawed creatures in the first place. How does something perfect create such imperfection? Hint: by being a work of fiction in the first place.
If a perfect God had really created Man, man would be perfect. But if imperfect Man created the story of God, they'd have to do a lot of explaining about how a perfect being created such a flawed world. In fact, they'd need a whole book...!
