thanks for elaborating! i've never been religious so i only have a surface understanding of these stuffs. and honestly i kinda dislike it when fellow atheists throw out the "bUt wHAt abOUt eVil?" as the gotcha to try to prove that religions cannot be logical. but generally speaking religions can be logical and quite self-consistent in fact, and the question ultimately will be "what do you believe" which can't be empirically tested anyway.

God made them wrong, as a joke
Couldn't they be rewarded accordingly in the afterlife?
"You may be entitled to holy compensation"
Does that absolve evilness?
Not OP and I don't really care, but why wouldn't the reward absolve the evilness?
