Default Problem with the Problem of Evil

Keep in mind that I am an agnostic and do not necessarily disagree with the conclusion to the problem of evil.

However, the problem with this argument is that it tries to tie down "God" to our rules of logic. Assuming that a supernatural entity exists...there is no reason why it would have to care about or follow our rules of logic (or any other physical "rules" for that matter.)

Or put another way, attempting to argue logically about something which may exist outside of our capacity for understanding is useless.
