    It’s similar to the “unstoppable force meets an immovable object” thought experiment.

    They can’t both exist, just like 0 can’t be the same as 1. If you somehow “forced” it to be true because an all powerful deity made it so, the logic breaks, and the answer is effectively useless to us.

    So then if a deity made freewill, there MUST be evil, or at least the capability of it. My metaphor is sorta inverted, but hopefully it makes sense.
