Quote:There are a lot of similar things. Addictions, I have read somewhere, may have a genetic foundation. God could change the gene. No interference with free will. You could come up with plenty of other examples but I think you get the drift.

If God could genetically alter humans to prevent or cure addiction, and free will is a thing, why wouldn't God have created people in such a way that, of their own free will, they would never commit an evil act?
