Epicurus' Riddle

My own and simple interpretation to Epicurus’ Riddle.

“Is God willing to prevent evil, but not able?”
“Then he is not omnipotent.”

-God’s worshipers know that their God is divine and powerful. If he is powerful enough, then he can wipe out evil in this world. Good and evil will remain the same forever. Because they are one of the earth’s balance. The Yin Yang.

“Is he able, but not willing?”
“Then he is malevolent.”

-If your God can erase evil with his divine power, but he is not willing to do it for his creations, then your God is putting evil close to you.

“Is he both able and willing?”
“Then whence cometh evil?”

-If your God can already erase evil and do it at this very moment, then why evil still remain. If he is able and willing, then your God can vanish evil in the first place they had existed.

“Is he neither able nor willing?”
“Then why call him God.”

-God was just an invention of man. Man, trying to make evil to become good. But whatever man do, or how they are willing to, they would not. With their faith in their God, they are not able to…forever.
