How can a good God allow so much Evil in the World?
In the James Bond movie, Casino Royale, Bond’s employer, M, says to Bond, “arrogance and self-awareness seldom go hand-in-hand". This statement is true for atheists, especially when they challenge God’s existence. One question they often ask is, “How can a good God allow so much evil in the world?”. They ask this question as the set up for some sort of “Gotcha” moment. The problem here, is that they are lacking the self-awareness to realize that in their attempt to “get” the Christians they ask this question to, they are actually conceding the existence of God and are instead questioning his nature. After all, how can any kind of God “allow” anything if he doesn’t exist to begin with? How can God have a nature if he doesn’t exist? The question of “How can a good God allow evil?” is doubly fallacious. It is a Loaded Question being utilized as a Red Herring.

Death
That walk down the dark alley was the longest walk of my life. It was mainly because of my injuries. Each bullet hole and laceration made me bleed profusely arms,and each footstep brought back different events from my life. A cold sweat flooded me mingling with the blood and raindrops that me,was already pouring down my face. I collapsed into a puddle, weakened from my wounds, but this weakness I had never felt before. It was the worst weakness any man could experience; it was the weakness of a dying man.
