I am saying it's not possible for God to create himself. It only leaves create will than must choose itself the path it wants to walk.

Do you understand the significance of 'scare quotes'?

No religion-less person recognizes a problem of evil. It is only a problem for those who believe a perfect being created a perfect creation which has obvious flaws to those not imbibing the koolaid. But you make a good point, there isn't much point in arguing with you while you lack coherence. Catholic lady on the other hand seems much more worth the effort. At the very least we may gain some insight into how reasonable people can come to disagree.
