Worldly notion

I think there are many worldly notions I would not agree with.
The one that crosses my mind now is the notion that God makes or/and lets bad things happen when He obviously could have stopped them from happening because he is God.
The only way this argument is valid is if you take away everyone's freedom of choice and He makes us all robots that obey His every command.  Because if He takes away one person's ability to drink and drive, to cheat on their spouse, to create a disease, He can not limit that to one person.  He is a fair and perfect God so everyone either gets the right to choose or no one does.  The "bad" things are a result of living in a world that is imperfect and fallen.  The things that are not of God that hurt a person are not always a direct consequence of what that person has done. Although it is true you reap what you sow, sometimes you reap the fact that you live in an imperfect world.  My thoughts for this question.
