One of the greatest argument against the existence of God, i would like to hear discussion on both sides of the issue. Does the Problem of Evil hold strong? If it exists does it disprove God? Does the problem of evil even exist?

Evil will always exist in this world until the last day when Satan will be thrown into the lake of fire burning with sulfur which is called hell. It is the work of Satan to tempt people to do evil. Satan is the father of evil and he knows that he will be thrown to hell on the last day and he wants to have so many people to be with him there in hell so he keeps on enticing people to do evil and to go against God. For people who want to obey God, they are confronted with the problem of evil and that is how they are tested if they are really faithful to God for if so, the devil cannot tempt them. They would be able to resist temptations.

Isn't "competing" over accumulating the most human souls just like little kids competing for the front seat in the car - isn't it sort of childish? Doesn't it make anyone question and ask about the absurdity of it to begin with? For what purpose would any "almighty god" engage in such nonsense?
I would not want to be led by ANY force or being - especially one acting so juvenile to require submission through fear or coercion...and BOTH god and the devil do this - according to those choosing to follow organized religion that is.

Evil is co-existent with the world. There will always be evil. But it can never disprove the existence of God. Evil is strong but God is stronger. We can defeat evil by following God and the word of God is the Holy Bible so we should keep on reading the Holy Bible to avoid temptations.
