When you write 'If you have any young children in your family' do you mean- 'if you are a parent of young children' ?
If so, by your logic, you are the same as god?

You don't realise what you're saying sometimes have implications
Let's use the case above. Would you allow your child to be brutalized and repeatedly raped for 24 years because you need her to learn a lesson? What do you consider of someone that watches that and does nothing???? YOu would say they're definitely guilty of something right.
If your child is about to cross a busy road. WOuld you let them figure things out or would you stop them?
BTW, let's suppose evil is due to free will. Why do we have Tsunamis and Earthquakes killing and affecting millions??? Is your GOd responsible for that?

Could an all powerful GOd create a world where there is no Earthquates?

so, you are there Bob. Why don't you answer people's questions?

yeah bob, erica asked you a good question.

Hey Bob. Here's something for you to think about:
Matthew 18:6
‘If any of you put a stumbling-block before one of these little ones who believe in me, it would be better for you if a great millstone were fastened around your neck and you were drowned in the depth of the sea.

I am sooooo thankful I am not the same as God haha.
And I don't necessarily mean parent - its possible to have young children in your family without you being the mother or father.

He created an Earth that is capable of sustaining itself. Natural disasters are a part of that.
