Explore how Christian doctrine explains the reality and origin of evil, from Scripture to philosophy.
This concise, scholarly volume surveys how evil is defined, experienced, and explained in Christian tradition. It frames the question around the universal presence of sin, its empirical reality, and the ways theology seeks to ground its origin in a meaningful system of belief.

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book investigates the philosophical, scientific, and Christian approaches to the origin of evil. The author argues that empirically, evil is both present in humanity, yet fundamentally separate from God, as suggested by the Christian narrative found in the book of Genesis. Drawing on the Bible and the teachings of the Church, the author explores how humanity became the bearer of evil. Theories about the root of evil's existence are laid out, including those that suggest evil is an unfortunate necessity, a product of human finitude, and even a result of the Divine. The author carefully examines and refutes each perspective, demonstrating that they ultimately fall short or contradict the fundamental Christian belief in God's goodness. Ultimately, the author's exploration of the Christian doctrine of evil provides a unique perspective on the nature of evil and its profound implications for humanity.
