IF you believe in god, it is the cause of everything. Evil and all. In the bible, it declared it creates evil. Yet christians call their god a liar, and say it doesn't do that. Christians are nothing if not confused.
Happily that is a tale of myth, nothing in that bible ever happened.

No, evil is an evolutionary characteristic, everything that could somehow threaten your own survival is "bad", even if it affects a third party it means that it could affect you.

Absolutely not ! From Isaiah 45:7, we know that God created evil and good. But before we all go off the rails, the evil that God created were the consequences of sin. Literally, sinning brings us to the evil consequences of our own sin. The evil we experience is the precise payback that God warned Adam and Eve about: they would die BECAUSE they exercised their free will and made poor choices that were against God. But once a person steps off God's narrow road (yes, the bar is set high), that person is in an environment of evil and it saturates his or her personality and character. Hang out with hoodlums and thugs, and you become one too. THEN we find evil multiplied and taking over the perpetrators of it, so that the intent of their actions are always evil. See Genesis 6:5.

No!
Your god, Satan, is the only cause of all evil in the world!

EVIL: originally meant: possessing human characteristics, habits, needs or desires; does not mean bad or wicked. Evil can lead to wickedness.

The fact of the matter: God The Lord Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior is not the cause of evil, Satan and sin are the cause of evil in this world, so when we due evil then we serve Satan and sin the god of the dead. The God of the living is God The Lord Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior who is all good, but Satan and sin, Satan is the father of lies and has deceived the world world into believing a lie, rather then the truth of God The Lord Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior holy word the bible only.
