God chose not to make puppets, so he gave us free will. The world runs along a set of logical laws, sometimes they cause shit to happen, hurricanes, earthquakes, illness, ultimately death. God works through all this by giving us grace to make good choices, to help others, to fund research, etc etc. he's not Santa, he's not a magician. Christians believe in a god who died by public execution, his followers scattered, his message seemingly forgotten. God drew victory from that tragedy through the resurrection, but first came the crucifixion. Evil is the price for our radical freedom, would you prefer to be docile preprogrammed robots? Humanity is so free it was able to kill god. Problem of evil solved.
