Phil essay on "Why God allows evil into the world" The teacher really liked it!

Philosophers have looked for ways to explain God's existence for centuries. One such argument that the believer must justify in order to maintain the possibility of God's existence is the problem of evil. In this paper I will argue God has a good reason to allow evil.

I believe that there is free will only if allowed the choice of good or evil, which is why God allows evil in the world. Evil can only exist if there is the counterpart choice of good.

Using our free will, when good is chosen, leads to good and great things.
