You could argue from this point of view that God is evil Yorick. According to the Christian interpretation he is all powerful, but then why do evil things happen at all? It means that he is either an evil God or Christians are wrong...

I am not of this beleif myself, but I don't agree with your original argument so this is taking your logic to an extreme. I am a Christian and I don't agree with the above, so any fellow Christians out there should be warned of that before they flame me...
