Good question. Try this. Satan does not exist. GOD created all. There is no such thing as evil as the church describes it. Evil is the lack of love. GOD only created love. Like everything else, love can be placed on a scale. Let's say love is scaled from 0 to 100. GOD would be at the 100 mark. Evil would be in the lower scale from 0 up to where ever you perceive it to be but still on the "love scale" albeit at a very low point. Look at it this way and many things become clearer. Remember, Satan was invented by primitive man to explain that which they did not understand.

God could create anything He wanted, but since He is loving and just, He doesn't create evil...Satan does. Everyone has the power to be evil or good...they just have to know what's right.

Man created the idea of evil. Man also created the idea of God and of Satan.

God CAN create evil, he CHOOSES not to. If he could not create evil and Satan is evil then he could not have created Satan (by your definition). Satan can create good but CHOOSES not to.
Also you must remember that without evil (or bad) we would not know what 'good' was, and without good we would not know what bad was, therefore the two need each other, we need both in our lives to understand the other. Also therefore evil serves a good purpose, to teach us what is good.

Evil is not created it is performed. Maybe if some of you idiots that come up with these really dumb questions would pay more attention to being educated in school instead of just filling a seat you wouldn't feel so intellectually challenged by such really stupid ideas. This is supposed to be the religious and spiritual sight thats true. If you really want to know about God develop a relationship with Him. But then...that would mean you would have to understand simple thought dosen't it? Oh well...I guess there is no hope for lazy, spoiled, youth. BANG!!!!!000000000000000

your question is logically wrong,there is some questions like your question,for example "Can God create a Stone that can't lift it itself?" There is no answer to this question,because it's logically wrong,and it doesn't mean God cannot!
Everything is created by God,and everything has its specifications which is given by God will, for example God creates human gives the right to be good or bad And evil can be made from our bad activities.

nothing what we see , hear , feel , taste or smell was created in this world. They are just elements which makes different things. Evil can be created withen you or in a higher capicity. Satan and god is similar creation like harrrrry potttor.

I think God can create evil, but simply chooses not to. Or if you look at it from another perspective, he created evil by creating satan, but didn't directly create evil, and therefore hasn't 'created it'.
I dunno. But the scriptures definitely say that God is much more powerful than Satan.

It's like Yin and Yang, If you have goodness there must be evil. Satan and God are both equal, one can create evil and one can create good.
