Evil

The problem of evil refers to the question of how to reconcile the existence of evil within a world governed by an omnipotent God. Flannery O’Connor suggested that through their works of art, authors should make it their goal to “give the devil his due.” This to say that, by acknowledging and analyzing the qualities of the varying representations of evil in art, there is a movement towards answering the larger question(s). In bringing these “devils” into existence and in giving them sentience, authors

It is with no surprise that evil is lurking all around us. We live in a world that is unpredictable and dangerous. There are two categories of evil. The first is natural evil, which focuses on nature. The second is moral evil, which focuses on harm among others. The problem of evil is known to object the existence of God. Many atheists will say that if God is so good, then why do bad things happen to good people? Not to mention why did God create a bad world? We are often left speechless by the

paper) is fundamentally good and moral, and is even unable to create evil, then how did evil come to be in the life we are living? According to the problem of evil, if there is a God, there is no evil. But because there is evil in the world, the conclusion can be drawn that there is no God (Sober). At first glance, this argument is perfectly logical. However, this claim may be reversed. For if one is indicating that there is evil in this world, they are believing that there has been a “line” drawn

Some argue that evil people are powerful, while others argue that the evil are weak and should be pitied. Boethius is a Christian, who purely relies on logic to argue his points. In the Consolation of Philosophy, Boethius argues that the wicked do evil but thatand evil is nothing; therefore, the wicked can do nothing and should be pitied. Although Boethius’s view on God is somewhat plausible. Contrary to Boethius’s view, evil is something which can wreak havoc on others’ lives. Boethius argues that

The problem of evil is the notion that, how can an all good, powerful, loving God exists when evil seems to exist also. The problem of evil also gives way to the notion that if hell exists then God must be evil for sending anyone there.I believe hell exists in light of the idea that God is holy. The larger is how anyone can go to heaven. When I look out into the world it does not take long for me to realize that we are all different in many different ways. We all grow up in many different societies

neither good nor evil, and it 's the life experience that impressed with the man as he grows up. Everyone has an evil seed planted inside him. Only the really evil person acts on it and commits actions morally wrong. On the other side, the good person has many ideas how to live the life having morals. Everybody has the potential to bring out whether the good side of him or the evil side. Humans should work on doing the right, but at the same time they can be evil and have been evil at some point. Actually

Evil can be describes as a thing that is morally bad, causing negative consequences, destruction, hate or harm. Although the basic definition of evil doesn’t portray what evil is truly. It can be known through a lifetime of experiences. Many religions, societies, races and genders perceive evil in myriad ways. (Aznwho, 2005) Evil is when someone cause pain deliberately. Pain caused unintentionally shan’t be considered evil. Evil has always been unavoidable, it has its roots and reasons to persist

The existence of evil in the world caused people to questioned the existence of the perfect God. If God was truly omnipotent, omniscient, and perfectly good, then why would he let terrible things happen to good people? In recent news, we have witnessed many innocent deaths caused by a school shooting, a child raped, natural disaster, and other tragic events. If God was in control of everything, does this means that he allows these bad things to happen to humanity? This suffering seems to conflicts

A reason that ascriptions of perverse can be particularly injurious or dangerous is that it isn 't always visible what companions mean when they use the term ‘evil.’ As Eve Garrard clown it “the general privacy encompassment the term constrain some thinkers very backward to appeal to the consideration of evil”(Garrard 2002, 322). For instance, some people believe that to say that someone complete an bad deed involved that that person execute out of malice (see e.g., Kekes 2005), while others believe

The existence of evil seems undeniable. As we progress through our lives and go through our everyday routines, we can see and acknowledge that evil is all around us. By simply turning on the news, we are immediately bombarded with reports of violent murders, dangerous storms, robberies and a new dangerous disease affecting half of the countries in the world. There is no denying that people suffer because we have experienced pain and suffering ourselves. At one point or another in our lives, we are
