    No. God does not need to be proven to be good.

    We, as failing humans, use our limited physical abilities to differentiate good and evil. And everyone has a different opinion - hence all the confusion.

    Not in a direct way. But I am sure that the problems and sad situations will help people know God is good and God is careful

    Evil is a religious control; no God involved!

    Yes I guess. In the absence of that which You Are Not that which You Are you are not.

    You cannot see yourself as the light if your surrounded by light. To know what is light you must be surrounded by darkness. Only then can you know your self as the light.

    You do good is because God is inside you, and Not because you want to show you are religious.

    there would be no such thing as 'good' without 'evil', due to a lack of comparison or any sort of scale.
