Philosopher´s stones 2 : The theodicy problem (1/X)
“Even if there were pains in Heaven, all who understand would desire them.” (C.S Lewis)
Another headbutt. The theodicy problem. It´s has been discussed over the centuries, first mentioned indirectly in the old testament, the jewish bible. How can something we consider omnipotent, knowing everything and kind can tolerate that there is sorrow in the world. Why ithere is evil in the world, people get sick and die, children starve and so on, if GOD RULES??
In the end, there is no final solving for this problem, just attempts and personal preferences, but we surely have to make one distinction first: Manmade sorrow and pain and natural disasters like earthquakes.
The first one is clearer to answer, because GOD GAVE US FREEWILL and with it a part of his power to create. What we do with this is up to us (but imho ethical „good “ behavior is supported and you get gods help and more energy)
