The Deepest Dark Forest - Problem of Evil

Let's start telling you that lies are destroyed
When exposed to the power of reason
But to advance to the hall of truth
Leave all your fears for the liars and fools

If the god of believers
Is omnipotent, omniscient, and omnipresent
How is it possible to evil exist?
In this planet, in this universe

They told us that this god is kindness
So that we assumed he wishes the evil doesn´t exist
However omniscience is not compatible
With misinformation and ignorance

Because as we know the evil really exists
How to accept the idea that when creating this world
Such god might have been misinformed
That evil were naturally risen

The evil were allowed to risen
Under the natural laws this god supposed to rule
But once possessing the power of omnipotence
Why not create an universe without the evil?

The consequence is even worse
Its omnipotence and omnipresence
Makes him responsible for all the evil
For all the evil in this universe

By supporting all the evil and natural laws
That control energy and matter
This god became the only responsible
For all disasters and disgrace we have seen

By possessing the power of omniscience
He knows when earthquakes and volcanic eruptions come
But he neither stops them to happen
Nor he warns those going to die

Volcanos and earthquakes are examples of what we call natural evil
God is the only responsible for then
In contrast with the moral evil where he share the responsibility with humans
But even in this case he is the ultimate guilty

He supports evil humans and its existence
Holy war and holocaust, god supported evil
Omniscience, omnipotence, omnipresence
All these powers were not enough to stop them
God supports evil
Because he allowed them to kill
That´s the problem of evil
A god of goodness, omniscient and omnipotent
Is not logically consistent
With the fact that evil exist

Are not allowed
Are not logical
Are not consistent
With the fact that evil exist
And we know, the evil really exists
