With ultimate perfection and greatness come the ultimate responsibility, and ultimately one cannot possibly be all of the above and allow anything evil to happen. A god which lives up to the above claims would not allow bad things to happen anywhere that it has influence because it simply cannot. It does allow evil, therefore the Xtian god is not what is claimed of it.

I'm not all that familiar with the bible, is there anything in there that says god is omnibenevolent?  If it says anywhere in the bible that god is always benevolent then there might be a contradiction since he isn't benevolent in the bible towards sinners, for example he drowns the sinners of the earth in the story of Noah, although it doesn't say how he treats them in the afterlife.

Probably not on omnibenevolence Sad In my Fundy school, I was taught the other omnis, but not that one. To be honest, I still don't even know where these are derived in the bible, but they are the core of Xtian doctrine.
Mr. Hanky loves you!
