Yes, there certainly are legitimate concerns regarding evil and suffering. That's really the essential factor in the trap.
Apologists can appear cold and unfeeling if they stick to addressing the alleged ''logical problem '' from a purely logical standpoint.
Of course logically it is absurd for the creature to second-guess his creator. The scoffers have no hope in that arena and they know it. They bluff when they claim a ''logical problem'' and then proceed to appeal to emotion, hoping to confuse, and mix in sentiments which properly should be associated with the legitimate problem.
Certainly Christians and others ask how come there is suffering and evil. But this is in the context of honestly seeking answers - not lying and claiming God doesn't exist. It's an entirely different context. The objective of my response is to show the sham argument for exactly what it is, a disingenuous and deceitful attempt to drive a wedge between sinners and the loving savior, our Living God.
