There are worms that infect the eyes of children, crawling around and causes immense pain, regardless of the free choices that child made.
Horrible diseases don't have much to do with free will then they strike someone.

This is why dualistic religions like Zoroastrianism fundementally make more sense than the abrahamic ones. At least in those, good and evil are equally strong forces that battle it out everyday and people's choices will tip the balance in that battle. A more harmonic world view IMO.

Being religious means having to answer impossible questions like that. I'm glad I don't have to do it.

I can do better than worms.
