No one can be sure if God created evil or if it was here just as he was, or if it manifested from his innocent creations. But either way, it is here and probably will be until the end of time. Why does our God allow evil? Well... think of all that is evil. Now think of how much evil is in our world. Now imagine a world without evil. There goes the majority of our population...

Seriously, if God interfered in such a bold manner then that would be chaotic. Some people would praise God and others would turn against Him. But God isn't supposed to interfere like that, not in such a way that He would change the entire world and create a mass genocide -before- the second coming. Or Tribulations. There are many forms of evil. Is sin not evil? Every human on this Earth has sin, they sin by nature. I won't say I haven't sinned. But if God were to remove evil, then there goes my life.

Freewill. God created man to fellowship with him. God created Eve to be a companion of Adam. The only rule: Don't eat the fruit of Knowledge of Good & Evil. Adam & Eve made their choice. It was freewill. They disobeyed. It is freewill to accept evil and give into it. We may not be entirely evil-free, but we don't have to succumb to it. God didn't want puppets, else there would be puppets, he wanted people that would choose to love him. And to destroy such said people for choosing to disobey isn't a very godly thing to do. Even for a 'jealous God.'
