God did create evil, even the Bible is clear on that.

Of course, Christian backpedaling would say that god did not create evil because evil is not a tangible thing, this of course contradicts what god himself apparently said, but I doubt they are losing any sleep over that... They seem to forget that neither is good. I once had a discussion with someone who claimed that evil was simply the absence of good (lol, so people can only do evil if they have no good in them? What?), like darkness was just the absence of light. It tends to blow my mind that evil is like darkness (does not exist) but good is like light (electromagnetic radiation). Talk about having your cake and eating it too.
