This is a dilema I've thought about for a long time. I myself do place my faith in science.
Here are 3 statements:
1. God is omnipotent.
2. God is ominibenevolent.
3. Evil exists in the universe.
Obviously, all 3 cannot be true.
If 1 is false, then god is both absolutely good, but lacks the necessary power to fight evil.
If 2 is false. If god has the power to eradicate evil, yet he didn't, then he is not always benevolent.
The last statement cannot be false, becuase evil does exist in the universe, sadly.
Please tell me your thoughts, and please forgive me if I have somehow offended you.
