You cannot have light without darkness or what we call "good" without "evil". You would not be able to differentiate them if there were no boundaries for defining these terms. The Chinese Yin Yang is a good example of a symbol created by those with a deeper understanding of the opposing forces of nature (ie magnetism).

Look, if the Creator gave every intelligent creation free will they would have just that. The choice to make good and bad decisions.
God, the Creator did not create evil. Evil is that absence of good just as darkness is the absence of light.
He has already purposed to remove the one causing bad things and also all those that are knowing or unknowingly following his false teachings.

evil is the absence of God. Evil wasn't created in the way people think. Evil came about b/c some people (and Lucifer) choose to live completely without God.

The kind that would create good to go with it. Only with darkness can there be light. A rough patch just makes you appreciate those sunny days even more.

That being would be Lucifer. But, feel free to blame Adam and Eve for falling into temptation and allowing evil to come in.

i don't think any being created evil or lets it just exist i think it is only a remnant of society's need to condemn certain acts they believe unacceptable. i believe without pain how would we feel pleasure. so with out bad how would we know good good and evil is a state of mind and the only true evil is what you believe it to be.

There is no evil. There are only points of view. No one considers themselves or their actions evil. Everyone feels justified. Are there acts that harm others? Yes. Sould we try to stop it? Yes. But there is no evil.
It is an intellectual fallacy.

God could have prevented evil, he chose not to. Therefore he is, at least in part, to blame for the evil.

if your saying God created evil, he didn't he created the angel- Lucifer who ended up going against God and became jealous and wanted to bigger than God. therefore the devil went against God which is evil.
