Hardcover. Zustand: new. Hardcover. Could a Good God Permit So Much Suffering? presents a debate over whether the degree and amount of moral evil that actually exists in our world is logically incompatible with the existence of the all-good, all-powerful God of traditional theism. James Sterba puts the case in favour of this proposition, on the basis that the evils of the world are so horrendous that their occurrence violates principles requiring the prevention of moral evil, conclusivelyshowing the non-existence of an omnipotent and perfectly good God. In reply, Richard Swinburne argues that our major benefactors, parents and the State, have rights to permit us to suffer if doing so is necessaryto secure some good for ourselves or others. Therefore, Swinburne claims, as so much greater a benefactor than are parents and the State, it follows that God has a far greater right to allow suffering to a high degree if allowing such suffering is the only logically possible way for God to secure some very great goods for ourselves or others. Further responses from both Sterba and Swinburne continue the debate, ensuring that all lines of argument are thoroughly explored. Could a Good God Permit So Much Suffering? presents a debate about whether the kind of world we live in, ridden with horrendous evil, is compatible with the existence of the all-good, all-powerful God of traditional theism. James Sterba puts the case against, and Richard Swinburne argues in favour. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.…
