See Plantinga's free will defense for human and the variant for natural evils; it defuses the logical argument from evil. (Of course it does this by postulating 'free will', whatever that is, but I don't think free will is nearly as clear cut a p=~0 as the existence of evils...)

Of course it does this by postulating 'free will', whatever that is,

Plus the dubious moral view that the seemingly incoherent variety of free will is of immense axiological importance.
