Or better yet....do you believe that your God is not an Omnimax God? You do understand the actual meaning of the words above?
What say you about this......(Not my words and not necessarily all of my thoughts)...but certainly thought provoking.

I love the way you always make things personal, Cheese. Do you know how to have an argument without poking fun of my person based on things you've learned previously? You should really learn. You're old enough now.
What say I about that? It's circular logic by the atheists, for the atheists.
Do I believe our God is omnimax? Yes. Do I understand the meaning of the words above? Yes. Why is there still evil in the world? Some things are apparently too complicated for you to understand...
If life was fields and fairies, would we believe in God? What then would be human nature? Seems like that would be a world with no free will. Just because He can see what happens, and could change it, does that mean He should? Christians often struggle with the fact that there is pain and suffering in the world, and yet God could erase it if He so desired. I'm no different.
What do you suppose the book of Revelation predicts?
