i think The reason there’s evil in the world is not because of God, but because God gave us the freedom to choose. Now the potential for love outweighs the existence of evil, because you see, evil is only going to exist for a short time, but love is going to go on forever. And all of the suffering and all of the death that we see in the world today are the result because man has chosen to make wrong choices.

so what is  you clarification on that question ?

The freedom of choice is also one of the reasons why there are wicked people in the world. But the main reason is really why there is evil, is because of Satan. He ruled here on earth, God threw him here on earth since Jesus reigned in heaven. But sooner or later, God will destroy him and will never saturate evil forever

Evil exist to balance world. Think about it this way, how can we determine the if someone is good or bad without knowing what it is. Without comparison, we won't have knowledge about things. A good example would be on how a person looks like, we can't determine if a person is beautiful if we don't know what ugly is. :-) People will always make wrong choices and it will only be EVIL if we keep on doing it. I have read an article and it convince me that most evil is done by good people who do not know that they are not good.

I agree with your opinion...evil is necessary for balance...and also for diversity, so that people can choose their own way

Здpaвcтвyйтe! Mнoгиe вepyющиe oбpaщaютcя к cвoим дyxoвным нacтaвникaм c пoдoбным вoпpocoм. B oтвeт oни чacтo cлышaт, чтo cтpaдaния — этo вoля Бoжья и чтo Бoг дaвнo yжe вce пpeдoпpeдeлил, в тoм чиcлe бeды и нecчacтья. Hepeдкo мoжнo ycлышaть, чтo пyти Гocпoдни нeиcпoвeдимы или чтo Бoг нacылaeт cмepть нa людeй — дaжe нa мaлeнькиx дeтeй, — зaбиpaя иx к ceбe нa нeбo. B Библии гoвopитcя: «Heмыcлимo для Бoгa бeззaкoньe и для Bceмoгyщeгo — нecпpaвeдливocть» (Иoв 34:10, Tx) .
Mнoгиe нeгoдyют нa Bceмoгyщeгo, пocкoлькy дyмaют, чтo имeннo oн пpaвит миpoм. Oни нe знaют пpocтoй, нo oчeнь вaжнoй иcтины, кoтopoй yчит Библия. Пpaвитeль этoгo миpa — Caтaнa Дьявoл.
 B Библии гoвopитcя: «Becь миp лeжит вo влacти Злoгo» (1 Иoaннa 5:19). Ecли пoмнить oб этoм, вce cтaнoвитcя нa cвoи мecтa. Этoт миp oтpaжaeт cyщнocть нeвидимoгo злoгo дyxa, кoтopый «ввoдит в зaблyждeниe вcю oбитaeмyю зeмлю» (Oткpoвeниe 12:9). Caтaнa oчeнь злoбeн, лжив и жecтoк. Пoэтoмy миp, кoтopый нaxoдитcя в eгo влacти, тoжe пoлoн злa, лжи и жecтoкocти. Этo oднa из пpичин, пoчeмy нa зeмлe тaк мнoгo cтpaдaний.
Bтopaя пpичинa зaключaeтcя в тoм, чтo пocлe мятeжa в Эдeмe люди cтaли нecoвepшeнными и гpeшными. Oб этoм тoжe гoвopилocь в 3-й глaвe. Гpeшныe люди cклoнны бopoтьcя зa влacть, пoэтoмy в миpe тaк мнoгo вoйн, пpитecнeний и cтpaдaний (Eкклecиacт 4:1; 8:9). И нaкoнeц, тpeтья пpичинa — этo «вpeмя и cлyчaй» (Eкклecиacт 9:11). Живя в миpe, лишeннoм зaщиты Бoгa, люди мoгyт пocтpaдaть из-зa тoгo, чтo oкaзaлиcь в нeпoдxoдящeм мecтe в нeпoдxoдящee вpeмя.
 Кaк жe yтeшитeльнo знaть, чтo Бoг нe пpичиняeт cтpaдaния. Oн нe oтвeтcтвeнeн зa вoйны, пpecтyплeния, yгнeтeниe и дaжe cтиxийныe бeдcтвия, кoтopыe пpинocят людям cтoлькo гopя.

God did not create evil,  in fact He create everything and it was good. He gave us free will and what we sometimes choose, evil instead of good because of the increase of wickedness the love of many become cold.. and so because of these we see the world as full of evil things instead of good.

[mixelalex]

There is no shadow without light, and black without white. Balance, contrast. No one will see good without evil, and vice versa.

Evil exist to create balance in this world. How can we say that someone is a good person without us knowing what a bad person is. Evil exist everywhere. It is up to the person to resist the temptation. The sad thing was a lot of "good people" are just playing an act and does a lot of bad things at the background. There are a lot of people who doesn't miss a Sunday mass at Church but doesn't seem to know what good or bad is. What I noticed is that the people working at Church likes to gossip about other peoples lives. Shame.

For me its heaven's way in order to prove where you really want to into..whether its heaven or hell.
But devil wont take too long here on earth because they will punish in the future.

There is an evil in the world because satan is there, he brings sorrow, distress or calamity, sufferings, misfortune and wrong doing. The evil is the fallen angel from heaven downcast into the world, he is the proponent of rebellion. If there is rebellion rebellion there is an evil. The presence of evil is the result of pride and greediness.

[sebo.k]

People want to achieve their dreams and aims by any means and hence they resort to do evil . Even if they think their actions are not evil, their judgment is clouded for what they wish to achieve and hence wont accept it as evil.

[nagatraju]

I think the existence of evil is to examine us whether we do what is commanded to us and we avoid to do what is forbidden based on our religion.

That's for sure. Our whole life is a total test and we must pass it. This is our goal in this world.

[automail]

Evil exist because there are people who were not fortunate to live in a community were love exist. Imagine anvillage of terrorist. Their children will most likely become terrorists because they have been brainwashed since they were a child. They were fighting for something that their parents started. Also there are people who were weak in mind, they always go with the flow even if it leads to bad things.

[siddu1]

There is evil in the world because there are good people in the world.If there were no good people in the world then  we wouldn't be able to indicate the evils.

[Bonskimo]

There is evil because there's good ones. They do both co-exist in this world to maintain the balance.

[reymartH]

The answer is two-fold. For one thing, God could have made a world with no evil in it. However, it would have been one of robots and puppets—creatures who could not love Him or anyone else. Love is possible only for free moral creatures; forced love is a contradiction. So, in order for the world to be morally good, it must be morally free. And free creatures are capable of free choices that bring disease, disaster and death. This is the world in which we live.

[shiki3226]

There is evil in the world because there are people who decides and chooses to do evil decisions. Sadly, even innocent people get affected by their bad decisions.

[joebrook]

In a world where people covet money more than anything including human lives, it breeds evil in the world, it's high time that humanity stop blaming the devil for the evil that people commit in the first place,  The devil may give you a push to do something wrong but if you are easily swayed and firm, you won't go around committing such evil in the world and later blame the devil for it.q

[marinomario]

The best answer I can give is: God does not want a race of robots who have no free will. God allows the possibility of evil so that we may choose to worship God or not.

if we never suffer and experience evil, can we really know how beautiful paradise is?

God does not create evil, He permits it. if God does not allow evil, we will worship Him compelledly and not because we choose on our own accord

[kingzues09]

Yes There's a lot of evil in the world. if you're doing good they have a lot of evil things that they will do to you unless you treat them right but money is one of those thing they could manipulate and makes them greed. some of them they want money for evilness to get those power.

[salamyman]

Because it needs to balance the good.
