If God is omnipotent, then God has the power to eliminate all evil.
If God is omniscient, then God knows when evil exists.
If God is morally perfect, then God has the desire to eliminate all evil.
Evil exists.
If evil exists and God exists, then either God doesn't have the power to eliminate all evil, or doesn't know when evil exists, or doesn't have the desire to eliminate all evil.
Therefore, God doesn't exist. If god is evil (or just apathetic), then these are not problematic. And maybe the Permian extinction would speed up the process of evolving into humans? I wouldn't know. Your other points seem pretty good, though.

Doubtful, the permian mass extinction select agianst warm blooded creature in favor of cold blooded. Warm mammals only exist because a few species like this guy thrinaxodon ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thrinaxodon ) managed to get through.
To-morrow, and to-morrow, and to-morrow,
Creeps in this petty pace from day to day,
To the last syllable of recorded time;
And all our yesterdays have lighted fools
The way to dusty death. Out, out, brief candle!
Life's but a walking shadow, a poor player,
That struts and frets his hour upon the stage,
And then is heard no more. It is a tale
Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury,
Signifying nothing.

Those writing are the foundation of which the religion(s) of Christianity were/are built. Each sect of Christianity is different (all 41,000) of them, so the interpretations within the denominations differ as far as belief goes but the scriptures are written in stone. Can't be much more plain than that Then what you are saying is that the scriptures are, in places, demonstrably untrue. I'd agree with that. But to reiterate, the religion is an outgrowth of the scripture. It cannot be either true or false.
Well, if the religion is an outgrowth of the scriptures and the scriptures are logically inconsistent and demonstrably false, couldn't we say that the religion is false? Are we just playing with semantics? The bible is problematic from sentence 1, page 1. This fact begs esoteric interpretations. The bible is so logically incoherent that modern man is inclined to treat it as a riddle to be solved but the truth is its an amalgam of myths, stories, history, tribal traditions, and propaganda (against all of Israel's supposed enemies), All this would be fine if it wasn't taught as fact.

I don't know about all religions, but Catholicism teaches a person isn't born guilty of said original sin.
False.

False. Catholicism is where the doctrine of original sin started is not? Kind of sad when Christian's don't even know there own religions.
