I personally believe in God but I have doubt who has created universe, humans created god or God created humans! anyways! do you believe that God created everything, if Yes, then why did he create Evil? or Evil is existed just because of concept of Duality? what do you think?

Everything exists in duality. Like light and darkness, strong and weak, day and night, etc....good and evil also exists. But it is we that separate them as good and evil and god doesn't. One thing seen good can turn evil tomorrow ( like the sweet lover turning into a bitter better half, later in life). Likewise, vice versa also happens. Our part is to just experience life and we need not question the nature.

If you are believing in The GOD, there is no quetion who has created this universe. Everything on this earth and in this universe is created by God.God created eveil just beacause of to take our exams, He would like to see our patience,tolerance etc...After qulifying His examination HE WOULD LOVE uS MUCH MORE as He has said in different religious books.

If everything was all good and beautiful and we had no clue to evil and bad then what would there be to be learned here? People would not be good because it made their hearts feel good and their lives run smoother. They'd just be good. We'd have no appreciation for it because it would be all we knew. There would be no challenges and no rewards. Take for example one of the most horrendous evils....harming a child. As horrible as it is, does it not touch your soul and make you more aware of your own children each time you hear one of those stories on the news? Imagine if you NEVER had to worry about your kids or teach them right from wrong. I think without the bad, we'd all be taking the good too much for granted....unfortunately.

When we sow the seed, we get grain but together with it we get husk as well. We did not want husk but still we get it. It is same with evil. It was something unwanted but came into being.

I think that God has created evil to run this world. Just think that if everything is good then there won't be any identity of Good, getting me? We can distinguish Good because there's Bad right? If everything happens good in life then I am sure we gonna bored from that life, we like to face difficulties in life, just think about that joy when we overcome any difficulty? So, I think it is the game of that SHREWD almighty that seated up in the sky to keep world running.

Everyone has their doubts but I believe God created humans. And as for evil well I really don't know how to put my thoughts into words. Without evil we would not be able to know the definition of good and without good we would not know about evil. So if god created good then evil came about into our world as well. In a way God did not really create evil rather it formed itself. I'm sorry if I'm not making my point clear.

I believe god made everything except evil. God created us and evil is the choice that some people choose to take and most choose good. God done this to separate us from good and evil being the good have eternal life in heaven and evil people spend eternity being tortured in hell. The road we take is up to us and it's never too late to change from evil to good as god is very forgiving and loving.

yes i belive that god created everything, and i also belive in the concept of duality,for without darkness there is no light. without evil there is no good,if all men on earth would be good then there would be no heroes.life is a game,and what good is a game without a fight.

i believe humans created god. because if god created everything then i dont see why only humans should worship him and build places of worships. we humans credit everything good that happens to god and there must me someone to be credited for the bad and hence the evil. lol but thats just my thory

If you believe in God's existence, why not ask himself your question. I personally don't believe in God. Because if I believe him, I am always in a logistic dilemma, like you have mentioned.

i believe in god and believe that he made all thing and also the devil according to me he created devil . then he showed us the right path and he want to test whether you really believes in god and chose the right path or are you going through the path of evil .

that's a tough question you have there. as far as i know (and i'm not sure if this is correct), lucifer was an angel; and he was a favored angel. but he challenged God's position and authority and got expelled from heaven. i found this online, you can read it if you'd like to know more^_^ http://www.thepathoffaith.org/3originofevil.htm

If there is no evil, there will be no good. All that stuff is made up by people, it is a long and well designed fairy-tale. You don't need someone to fear from to be a good person. I do not want to argue and I do not want you to not believe in God. It is just my opinion :)
