Présentation de l'éditeur

Traditional Christian theology has sought to root the origins of suffering and evil in human sin. The big problem with this is the fact that contemporary science clearly indicates that earthquakes, volcanoes, tidal waves, animal suffering, and disease long pre-date the appearance of humanity. How can Christians take science seriously and yet hold on to traditional theology? One solution is to defend young earth creationism but Dembski argues that the science does not allow us to take this way out. Is the only alternative to abandon the historic Christian position? In this highly original and innovative book, which is sure to be the subject of much discussion, William Dembski argues that there is a third way for theology. We can, argues Dembski, affirm that natural evils are the result of human sin whilst at the same time maintaining that such evils chronologically precede their cause! This book is devoted to the defence of this surprising claim.

Revue de presse

This book is an example of philosophical theology at its best. It contains fascinating and even exciting new perspectives on the problem of evil. --Stephen T. Davis, Russell K. Pitzer Professor of Philosophy at Claremont McKenna College

I have read very few books with its depth of insight, breadth of scholarly interaction, and significance. From now on, no one who is working on a Christian treatment of the problem of evil can afford to neglect this book. --J.P. Moreland, Distinguished Professor of Philosophy, Biola University
