That’s a phrase that I heard recently, and I think that it’s from some famous philosopher, but uhm…

I don’t know how to debunk it.

I’m doing my best to believe without thinking too much about that.

Some days it gets hard tho, so I’d like to hear you guys’ take on it.

    Why can’t God create reality such that free will is possible without evil? He is omnipotent, so there’s nothing stopping him, right?

        It’s also logically inconsistent for anything to be omnipotent. Why is one case of inconsistency OK, and another doesn’t make sense?

          I was just answering the op question.

          There are plenty of Christian apologists that have dealt with this question in published works. There’s no pithy response that would fit in an online forum.
