Why did God create Evil?

You cannot have good without evil.

Like a cop who commits crimes so that there's a use for cops.

Philosophically speaking, why is it necessary for us to know what 'good' is, if there's no 'evil'?

Absolutely, if he is concerned about whether anybody believes in him or wishes to follow the rules he laid down. Pictures of Mom and Dad on the wall don't do a very good job raising kids, do they?

Godschump Wrote:God created the universe, man is part of the universe, man is the only one who has evil, man chooses evil.

Did we design ourselves to have the capacity to commit evil?

That usually evokes the tired old 'free will' argument, but that's just a shit sandwich fit only for stupid mouths like yours.

God could have designed humans to reproduce in any number of ways. We could have mating seasons, like so many animals do. We could do it by cutting off our hair and having an infant grow out of it. God could do anything, after all, so your imagination's the limit.

But, how did God choose to do it? He chose to design human beings so that sexual intercourse could happen at any time, with any mate. He chose to design sexual intercourse intensely pleasurable. Then he chose to come up with a hundred different rules limiting sexual intercourse. He chose to design the male body so that having sex with another male was not only possible but pleasurable. Then he chose to order people not to do it.

If you didn't want us having buttsex, you shouldn't have given us butts, you stupid fucker.
