Answer to Question #4
God will not remove it because it is a test for us.
The Word of God says He created evil, but the question is for what purpose...does He have faith in us that we will all finally choose to do what is right in His sight?
Shall we pass the test?
Will we rid the world of evil? Why in 6 thousand years have we not been able to rid the world of this kind of evil. Because we have freewill and are able to choose. Why do we choose not to love one another and God? If we did, the Ten Commandments would not be a stone tablet but a living document. If I love God, I will not harm his greated creation (my neighbour), or myself. It is all so simple yet so complex, just like the human cell. So not sure if I answered your question or just gave you more questions to ask. By the way, what are questions 2 and 3?

faith is individual, catholic is a religion, not a faith.
dont try to be smart you suck at that
and grow up.
God gave Adam and Eve a choice in the garden they chose wrong which started the evil. They made the choice for us and now we have to finish the role they started by making that choice.
Evil is our nature and God wants us to have a relationship with him that is why Christ died on the cross to wipe the slate clean.
We will never not be sinners on this world and we have a choice to know and accept that but again it is Gods will that we choose where we stand.
I look at it kinda like we are all pawns in a game of chess between two powers it is in who's side you want to be on.
God does not get rid of the evil because the choice was already made for us and we must except that and he allowed the choice to be made and Man and woman chose wrong.
What would the world been like had they not taken the serpents offer of eating from the tree of knowledge of good and evil one can only imagine.
It has been a while since you were last here. Things have changed. If you can't be polite and treat people with respect, you should leave: http://www.politicalfray.com/showthread.php?t=2727
Haha, if it is that hard for you to be respectful, then sure that might be the best for all of us.
He was assuming that he knew someones faith based on which church that person gose to, and I called him out. Letting him know faith is different than a religion.
A faith is a set of beliefs, a religion is a dogmatic system who's practitioners must adhere to all tenants. Catholothism and Protestantism (faiths) are umbrella terms for the beliefs of some Christians (religion).
As I said, stop trying to act like you're an intellectual genius, you're only making yourself look bad.
