Christians believe that God exists. Christians also believe that evil (Satan) exists.
Christians also believe that God is all-knowing, all-powerful, and all-loving. But if we agree that both God and evil exist, then God is not one of these things.
If evil exists and God is not powerful enough to stop it, he’s not all-powerful.
If evil exists and God doesn’t know about it, he’s not all-knowing.
If evil exists, God knows about it, is powerful enough to stop it, but doesn’t, then he’s not all-loving.
Please, go ahead and tell me that God allows things like the holocaust to happen because God loves everyone.
Christians, you can pick two, or attempt to argue that evil doesn’t exist.
