God and Inscrutable Evil

Viac o knihe

The book explores the complex philosophical issue of inscrutable evil, examining its implications for both theism and atheism. David O'Connor presents a balanced argument, advocating for "friendly theism" and "friendly atheism" as equally justified perspectives in the discourse on God and evil. He develops two arguments from evil—one logical and one empirical—targeting orthodox theism. Ultimately, O'Connor proposes a philosophical detente, contributing significantly to contemporary discussions in the philosophy of religion.
