Suppose that you come to know that a girl is raped tortured and murdered, and have the means to prevent it but you do not, Is it because your attitude by more reprehensible?.
So if the Judeo-Christian god and so powerful that everything you know and everything you can not see that avoids these atrocities, His attitude is really almost absurd as the offender to become a silent spectator?.
Do not say that God does not interfere in the actions of man nique is the famous free alberdrío according to the Bible because in the past the same God put in wars and other things, .

A loving god is incompatible with reality.

If I understand the question ... why doesn't God do anything about evil? Though many writers in the Bible complained about suffering and evil....the Scriptures make it plain that God did not create the world in the state in which it is now, but evil came as a result of the selfishness of man. The Bible says that God is a God of love and He desired to create a person and eventually a race that would love Him. But genuine love cannot exist unless freely given through free choice and will and thus man was given the choice to accept God’s love or to reject it ... choose 'good' or 'evil.' "War, rape, starvation, and more," is the result of this.
Having a disease, being raped, or murdered, are not choices. But they are the result of others choices. Certainly, God is capable of destroying evil and suffering--but not without destroying human freedom, or a world in which free creatures can function. How do we as Christians respond to the problem of evil? With sorrow. With sadness. With revulsion. With perplexity. With questions that have no answers ... Each of us has had wrong thoughts, evil thoughts. Each of us has done something wrong — something evil. Why does God allow evil within us? None of us deserves to escape punishment, and yet God allows escape, too. I
f we ask why there is evil, we should also ask why there is mercy. God is not a silent spectator, watching the world impassively; He is fully conscious of the tormented situation in which his souls are suffering. However, God does not directly intervene in the universe but makes use of agencies. If there is to be rain, it does not fall from a clear sky. First the clouds gather, then the rain comes out from them. Let us fight against evil and needless suffering, starting with ourselves.
