Remember god's omniscience? He knew they would 'turn the other way' before he made them, so tell me again, who created evil?
Yes we believe He is omniscient, which means He knew some of them would turn their back on Him. Other than that, I can't pretend to know His exact motives or thoughts. Though it would appear that He at least saw that the good that would come of giving His creatures free will would ultimately outweigh the bad that would come of it, otherwise I imagine He wouldn't have done it.
But no, God didn't create evil. Evil is the absence of good.
"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."
