Regarding god allows evil:
My theory is that allowing "evil" is the basis of giving choice, wouldn't make much sense as a god to say: "Choose whatever you want, but I'll only allow good choices".
Opening up a second topic: God influencing the "evil" freedom by answering prayers:
Personally I believe that god doesn't instantly answer/resolve typical askforhelp prayers, because it would contradict the freedom to choose evil.
P.S. I am no christian, but my philosophy has a lot of parallels with christianity.
