All religions are a little strange but some are stranger than others.

The Old Testament depicts a vengeful God

The New Testament urges self sacrifice

The Quoran..Well, it depends on whose interpretation you follow..

I have a problem with religion, but not with Faith. However, according to the Bible, God created all things, since before creation, the universe and everything in it did not exist. Therefore, how did evil get created if God is all good? What went wrong in the mix?

Not trying to bait anyone. But this has always bothered me. It almost seems as if there has to be two sides like a coin. There is light, there is dark. There is male, there is female. There is good and there is evil. Therefore, two aspects of the Almighty. To me, that concept is frightening.

If there is a rational answer to this conundrum, I would be glad to read it. If there is a source of theological rationale, please list it.
