There are a variety of other answers as well. I am trending towards open theism, myself. Through careful consideration of the Epicurean paradox—which I believe is still the strongest challenge to any form of theism—I find myself more and more inclined to think that God is not omnipotent, nor omniscient. "Design flaws" are a natural consequence for something he didn't really design. I think that the problem with most forms of theism is that we are constantly getting God wrong.
