Why does God allow bad things and suffering?

@miccee said: This may be true, but Erjen's post proves why this 'free will' nonsense needs to be fully debunked. It's what theists always reach for when their argument has disintegrated; and people like you only bolster their position by giving credence to the concept of free will even when you're trying to dispute the way that they are using free will. 

Simply put, if free will was known to be as much of a nonsense as Noah's Ark, then there would be no need for the debate that you're trying to have and theists would have nowhere left to go.
