Explore how the ancient problem of evil meets modern reasoning, offering a hopeful case for divine goodness.
This book surveys the history of theodicy, tracing how thinkers from ancient times to today have tried to defend God’s goodness in a world with pain. It frames the debate, then weighs pessimistic arguments against optimistic answers grounded in reason and faith. The goal is to clarify what can be reasonably said about God, suffering, and the purpose of existence.
It presents a thoughtful, accessible examination of how divine attributes relate to human experience of pain, free will, and moral struggle. The author argues that the strongest case supports optimism about God’s goodness without ignoring the real problem of suffering, and it offers a reasoned path for hope in belief.Les informations fournies dans la section « Synopsis » peuvent faire référence à une autre édition de ce titre.

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book examines the long-standing question of whether God's existence is contradicted by or compatible with the presence of evil in the world. The author surveys the history of theodicy (the philosophical and theological attempts to justify God in the face of evil) and presents a comprehensive argument against the existence of an all-good, all-powerful God. They challenge the traditional view that evil is merely an illusion, or that it is necessary for our spiritual growth, arguing instead that evil is a genuine and unavoidable part of life, and that it points to the absence of a benevolent and omnipotent deity.
