theology of evil

After WWII and the atrocities of the holocaust many people in Europe totally lost any faith in God. A huge part of that was probably because they'd already rejected the Bible as God's Word due to theological liberalism, but was this the only cause? Have we reformed believers been too quick to apply a pat answer to the problem of evil and the evil men commit? I know that God has a morally sufficient reason for allowing evil, and that He is sovereign over all his creatures and all their actions, yet not responsible for or the author of evil, but have we really taken the question of evil seriously enough?
