Conversations with Christians can be profoundly disturbing. They should teach classes in college about that: Communication 101: Talking to your Christian friends.

Hi Emerald. I wouldn't be worried too much by this. It's their desperate attempt at trying to answer the unanswerable question. "in a Universe created by an all perfect, benevolent , omniscient and omnipotent 'God' , where did the 'seed' of evil come from ?

The world is scary. A lot of people are frighted of what is going on in the world today because it is so uncertain. Terrorism, politics, we could be wiped out with an asteroid within a month. Nobody knows what is around the corner. Nobody has all the answers. Some people get peace of mind by looking at life as if it will all work out in the end. Try and call a truce and have a discussion about how you both feel. Listen to each other. I'm not promising that either of you will change your minds but trying to understand each other is always better than violence.

The flawed logic of faith. For them to admit that it's an awful design would be to criticise God and so they have to dance around logical thought. I find it entertaining to watch, but yes very frustrating!
