- The concept of evil (natural and moral) and the logical and evidential problem of evil

- Religious responses to the problem of evil. Credit will be given for relevant knowledge of any theodicy, but candidates are expect to be familiar with the following:

 

 

Issues to consider are:

 

  • The success of the theodicies as a response to the problem of evil
  • What poses the greatest challenge to faith in God- natural evil or moral evil?
  • Is free will a satisfactory explanation for the existence of evil in a world created by God?
  • The strengths and weaknesses of these responses to the problem of evil
