Default Re: Lee and the book of Job

Consider the following syllogism.

God created everything.
Evil is a thing.
Therefore, God created evil.

If God did not create everything, then someone else could have created evil. But then you have two creators and hence, reality is dualistic and God is not all powerful.

There is also a theological tradition that evil does not really exist. Evil is merely the absence of good. If so, there is no devil or Satan.
