If God created all the good things around us then it means he created all EVIL too

[Angrboda]

I find it interesting that the same people who say atheism is simply a lack of belief in God balk at the idea that evil is the lack of a good that ought to be.

Well, for one, they are radically different things. For two, what does a "lack of a good that ought to be" really mean. When a man rapes a woman, what good that should be is that a lack of? The idea that evil is just a lack of good is nothing but an empty metaphor.
