A bit of widom from the ages!

This question has a whole subject devoted to it - theodicy - on the grounds that if you can't answer a simple question try to make it sound like a really complicated one and confuse the issue.

It sounds great to us because we're already non-believers, but it has minimal effect in an argument with most believers.

There's just no way to defeat that bit of creative genius with rational argument.
