Oh by the way Lucent, I just want to be sure I understand you clearly:
A god that creates a universe too big for it to micromanage = moral monster
A god that creates a universe and, due to being omnipotent, omniscient and capable of personal relationship with all of us is capable of preventing needless suffering but chooses not to micromanage because that would violate free will = OK
A bit more brief:
Unable to prevent evil = moral monster
Able but not willing to prevent evil = OK
