Sorry, Rn, but God is less glorious if he is responsible for designing specific evil choices.

If we say, "God created free creatures and they will make bad choices" that is one thing.

If we say, "God designed this murder so that Mr Y would die on this particular day," then that is entirely another thing.

     Deu 8:2   And thou shalt remember all the way which the LORD thy God led thee these forty years in the wilderness, to humble thee, [and] to prove thee, to know what [was] in thine heart, whether thou wouldest keep his commandments, or no.

You would rather had evil be the defeater of God and man Gods superior

You would rasther have this world a crap shoot with no one in charge

God hates evil..but not one event happens on this earth without His approval and without it being a part of His plan

God is God xzins you are not!

Yeah... it's True enough, but it's not a quotation from Actual Scripture.

Right, that WOULD be another thing entirely... that WOULD be a quotation from Actual Scripture:
