Time for a random quotation again. This one posts some doubts about god.
Is God willing to prevent evil, but not able?
Then he is not omnipotent.

Then he is malevolent.
Is he both able and willing?
Then whence cometh evil?
Is he neither able nor willing?
Then why call him God?— Epicurus (BC 341-270)
