if there is God, why does he allow evil to exist?

if there is God, why does he allow some christians to do evil in his name?

if God is almighty and all good, why doesn't he rid the world of evil himself?

A flood was on its way, forcing everyone to evacuate. The police rowed up to the most pious woman in town and said, "Ma'am, you have to leave this house! People are dying out here!"

The woman replied, "No, I'm not leaving. God has always helped me before, and He will do it again."

So as the water started to rise, she went to the second story of her house. Another boat came by, and the captain yelled, "Ma'am, you have to get on this boat or you're going to drown!"

The woman replied again, "No, God helped me before, and He will do it again."

The water rose even higher. This time she went to the top of the roof, where a helicopter came and hovered overhead. The pilot called into his loudspeaker, "Please climb aboard, ma'am. You are going to drown!"

The women sniffed and again replied, "God is going to save me!"

But the water rose higher, and soon she drowned to death. She went to Heaven, and there she asked God, "Why didn't you save me, O Lord?"

And God replied, "I did help--I sent you two boats and a helicopter!"

and more wisdom...

On one perfect sunday a head pastor of a church decided to go golf instead of give his surman, he called the church and said he was very sick, one of the other pastors agreed to fill in for him.

He put his clubs in the car and drove 100 miles to a course so that no one would recognise him.

an angel and god were watcing him, when he was walking up to the first tee the angel said to the lord, "he should be punished for doing this, playing golf instead of giving his surman."

The lord repled "he will be"

The pastor teed up his ball on the 400 yard par 4 and took his first swing, he hit a perfect drive. When he got to the green he noticed that he had hit a hole in one, he then started celebrating.

The angel watching said to the lord, "I thought you were going to punish him"

The lord replies "who can he tell"

Nice 250! Have you heard the story about the mountain climber? I don't remember it clearly, my dad only showed me it once.
