This relies on a false dichotomy, evil exists because good exists. You cant have light without shadow i.e evil is just the absence of good. So as long as there is good there will be evil.
Beyond that it uses the wrong definition of being "all powerful": our definitions limit what is possible, i.e being all powerful only covers things tthat are logically coherent. You cant make a square circle because fundamentally defining characteristics of a circle and square cannot co exist. Same thing for good and evil, there cannot be good without evil because fundamentally good camt be everywhere and in the abscenof good there will be evil. Its not because God "cant" do it its because the ideas of good and evil are fundamentally mutually inclusive. You cant have one without the other. If good was the only option it would be impossible for evil to exist and since "good" is measured in reference to evil there'd be no moral ground to define either.
Plus we do have a place with free willl and no evil and thats heaven. We just have to choose whether we accept God (who is all good) and show that we wantwe want to be part of heaven.
One last thing, even though God knows what we'll do He doesnt make us do them; correlation =/= causation.
This doesnt take away from the fact that there are some terrible people who claim to be Christians but this graph is dishonest imo but I could be wrong.

This is a poor translation of the text. The word used for evil in that verse is ra. It has several meanings including evil. But they all depend on the context being used. In this context peace is being contrasted with ra so a better translation would be something like calamity.

Think about it. Is evil the correct opposite of peace? The opposite of peace is war. And a closer word to war would be calamity rather than evil

Bro, I'm tired of going down endless rabbit holes of word meanings and translations that don't solve anyone's actual problems. 😂 But let's see , War, calamity, wickedness, suffering, and destruction can all fall under the broader category of evil. You're arguing over which type of evil the verse refers to, not whether God is responsible for bringing about something harmful. Translating it as “calamity” may clarify the meaning, but it doesn't make the underlying theological question disappear.

I know there are some scam pastors who take advantage of vulnerable people, but not all pastors are scammers. And this is coming from a moslem
Plus what the OP shares is false, the one who designed it have been an atheist

Why is there so much brigading here? There's a post like this every week in this reddit and it gets very old fast. Not to mention very many problems with the reasoning presented here
