We'll bad things happen in this world and it is the fault of man.
Wait this wasn't supposed to be on this thread, sorry my bad
This is a dreadfully old chestnut, and has been answered more times than Pascal's Wager, but I'll have (another) lash.
The free will argument to exculpate God from moral evil doesn't work, as God could have allowed only the existence of those beings who would - of their own free will - never commit moral evil.
Go.
