Yes, exactly, just like Pharaoh forced God to destroy him, and evil was from Pharaoh and not God.
It's good you are starting to understand.
I just love the way religiousites want to give their particular flavor of gawd all the credit for creating the universe, but are unwilling to pass over any of the guilt for the evil done in that universe. Who do they believe created it? All of it, not just parts of it. "Oh, but free will" they'll argue. Who, according to them, knowing beforehand exactly what would happen if it gave out free will? Who was it that completely, perfectly understood quantum mechanics and allegedly couldn't give a naked woman enough will power along with her free will to tell a talking snake to piss off?
If gawd created everything, it created Satan and it created evil, either directly or as an indirect result of something else, it created everything that we call evil..
