It calls into question the way the world is compared to how We think it should be if a perfect being exists.

That introduces two potential weak links, our view of what a perfect world would be and God. A theist will pretty much always decide that our view of the perfect world which is wrong rather than God.

It's a fantastic argument to reinforce an atheists beliefs but damn all use to challenge a Christian's. Which is what it's for isn't it?

I don't think even christians think the world is perfect.
Children wouldn't die from hunger in a perfect world.
