"Is God willing to prevent evil, but not able? Then he is impotent. Is he able, but not willing? Then he is malevolent. Is he both able and willing? Whence then is evil?" - Epicurus

I'm in favor of it being an impossibility. God can't make nonsense sense. He can't make 2+2=5. Black can't be white. Up can't be down.

preventing evil isnt impossible..... and it would make a lot of sense to do so.

The argument that I subscribe to is that the prevention evil would mean not only an elimination of any kind of free will, but also a fundamentally different kind of existence. Imagine, if you will, that everytime a person tried to strike another person with a stick that stick became as light as a feather. How would such a universe function? What if you were going to hit that person with a stick to keep them from falling off a cliff?

ummm are you arguing against the miracles of the bible? cause god and/or jesus deffinently interjected and raised people from the dead and all that in the bible. if you believe that than you can NOT suggest that god cant stop someone from hitting someone else with a stick.
