P.S. She has no uterus.

Yeah, something that is scientifically impossible. Maybe bend the laws of biology, time, geology, and physiology to help out a few of your worshippers survive in a cave for over 300 years.
Maybe split the sea or even the moon.
Maybe send Messengers with messages that contain facts of science that are not known to the people at the time. Maybe also allow these Messengers to perform miracles(by your(God's) permission) to prove that they are legitimate.
Maybe if that happened, I'd believe in a god.
Oh, wait.

Why is it nonsense?
The epicurean riddle fails because it attempts to construct an extremely diametric paradigm of Good and Evil. This only works within Epicurius's moral framework that good is what ever is pleasing, and evil is whatever is displeasing. It doesn't account for a difference between natural evil and moral evil. ( For instance, a hurricane blowing over a city. This is a calamity, but it's not a moral event. It's not morally good or morally bad, it just is.) It also doesn't fit within a Christian moral framework which makes no correlation between suffering and evil, if anything suffering leads to good in the Christian moral framework.
This where the ultimate failing comes in, that if God is able to prevent "evil" he isn't benevolent. The problem of this is that it 1. only works again if you subscribe to epicurean moral framework, and 2. it in no way includes higher order reason and goals, it leaves no room for complexity. There might actually be a benevolent reason that God doesn't act, that the persistence of evil leads to a higher better good.
And of course, it completely ignores the sanctity of free will.
