    Either that or:-

    • is not as powerful as advertised

    • has a different definition of evil

    • doesn’t exist

    Maybe some other possibilities.

      One of which that I’m aware is: the devil was deliberately created with the knowledge of its future rebellion to test the faith of people. Another is to wait for them to repent. I don’t follow any more, but deeper into catholicism there’s a surprising amount of theory. For a religion with an organized structure, it’s not very organized.
