Default Re: The Fallacy of Good vs. Evil: Christianity is inherently flawed

You crazy Manichean! Burn him at the stake!

Why do you say that it is not good for God to allow evil though? Say that he has 2 options: forcing all the angels and men to obey, or giving them freedom to choose. Going with the latter option allows the possibility of evil, but it also allows a fuller existence of good. If the good that arises is worth "more" than the evil, the good choice would be to allow evil to exist. Thoughts?
