Answering the Theodicy Question (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

The author proposes that an answer to the general theodicy question, which asks how a loving and all-powerful God could have created human beings and placed them into a world where so much suffering and evil could occur, can be found in three interrelated explanations that focus on the consequences of having certain shared key attributes. Together they show why moral evil, natural evil and all other types of suffering that occur here would not be inconsistent with such a God. If that is correct,the answer would meet the criteria not only for logical possibility but also for plausibility, thus providing rational support for belief in the omnibenevolence of an omnipotent God.

This book is approximately ffity-three pages long.
