Theodicy is the the teological conundrum of how to square God’s omnipotence (can do anything) and omnibenevolence (absolute good) with the existence of evil in the world. A shitton of teologicians and philosophers tried to tackle the problem and usually failed miserably. Personally I never found any explanation to be convincing, until I came up with one and I honestly believe it is the only possible one.

What if God just… isn’t very clever? He’s doing his best, ok?!

Now, you may ask - if he’s omnipotent, couldn’t he increase his own intelligence? Yes he could. But he’s too stupid to realise that =(
