So two problems we have Skepsis:

1) The issue of special pleading to the Designer (I'm working to explain this one)
2) The issue it's possible for God to bestow the value and virtue of the experience of struggling against evil by free-will without evil.

If these two issues are solved, does it seem the problem of evil is solved?
