Since there is "evil" in the world is your god unable or just unwilling to deal with it

God is able and willing. Christ paid the atonement and God has given us this time of grace that you might know him.

In my own personal belief, the nearest "GOD" I can define is the sun (It is the creater of all life afterall, if you belive in the evolution theory)
The sun in unable to stop evil. I think its possible the sun is a sentient energy based being. And essentialy is so far more advanced then us, that is also "does not care, and unwilling to deal with evil" if you were try to give the sun a human trait, which it would not have.
One thing I always detested about major religions was giving god "human like" traits.

"For those things that proceed out of the mouth come from the heart'; those things defile a man. For out of the heart come evil thoughts, murder, adultery, sexual immorality, theft, false testimony,slander." Matthew 15:18,19†
Why are there so many in the world who are unable or unwilling to turn away from evil in their own hearts?
Why is it so hard for people to stop doing such evils to one another and themselves? Why do so many lie, cheat, destroy one another, why is there so much jealousy, envy and total hatred of each other?so much so people kill, and steal from one another when they have another choice? Why choose the path of destruction?
For this reason, we need a Saviour, and the only one who IS "able and willing" is Jesus Christ.
Don't worry, those who do such things shall be destroyed themselves. God will deal with it, everyone, whether righteous, or wicked, good or evil, believer, or non-believer, will give an account to God for what they have and haven't done with their lives.
"Don't be deceived, God is not mocked. A man reaps whatever he sows." Galatians 6:7†

My God the Creator of All Things that exists, is very much Able as He is the Almighty, and He has made all the necessary arrangements for us to regain what we lost at the begining, and live everlastingly, on a peaceful Earth, as He intended. In the meantime, we have to persevere, until He makes everything new again.

God can and will deal with evil. He allows it to exist for a relatively short time, after which He will then destroy it, and all who practice it. In the end, no one will escape God's perfect justice.

In my beliefs (Asatru/Forn Sidr), everyone is expected to deal with their own problems on their own realm of existence. They can give us some assistance, but if the gods did everything for us, how would we learn and grow? How would we gain wisdom?
We don't come before them as groveling beggars relying solely on their providence. We stand before them on our own feet as the far distant descendants.

Funny the way you say, "Your God" like you are an alien from another planet. I feel like Captain Kirk. The answer will come to you in a dream. Do tell.

He does deal with it, just not in ways some people expect or agree with.

everyone must learn and grow if any god stopped the that process life would be very boring... what gives you the right to criticize something you having no understanding of?
