Knowing everything and allowing evil

[chi pan]

well i already defined the terms but if i need to reiterate then fine. good and evil are subject to a lot of bad interpritation and mean very different things to many different people but since we are talking about God and the bible it only seams fitting to use the biblical definition when it comes to the question why does God allow evil. evil is the result of man disobeying God. God has very strict commands and evil is the result of disobeying these commands. if God controlled all our decisions, there would be no evil but since he doesn't then we have the ability to disobey. when we do so, evil is a conciquence. you may think hurting someone by lying to them is not so much evil but according to the bible it is. evil is within everyone because he gives us choice to do good or evil; obey him or not.

Since according to your bible god does every damn evil thing you can think of, rape, torture, murder, genocide, etc,etc,etc whilst also commanding his followers to do the same he is one hell of a hypocrite.

Or are these acts only evil when they're not commanded by god?

God rapes? How does that even work? Lol it's not even possible. As for murder he does not murder. He exicutes wrong doers. There's a difference between murder and execution. Look it up. He does not torture either. He allows people to torture others because he doesn't block out free will and he sends people to hell but he is not torturing them. They are tortured because they are separated from God.
