Very simplistic and confusing at times. Needs more clarity, for example you said 'Natural evil is caused by immorality' whereas in actual fact natural evil is a penal consequence of human sin. Moral evil is directly caused by humans. You should be using vocab such as 'privation of godness' or even 'privatio bono' to get top marks. However, good basic knowledge is there and I like the use of 'inconsistent triad' it sounds more impressive than Epicurean/ Humean problem of evil.
