This debate was hosted by Cameron Bertuzzi on his YouTube channel Capturing Christianity. Subscribe here for more debates similar to this one
Two months ago I released a video called 'Could God Be Evil?' () in which I discussed a strange and unique angle to the problem of evil for religion. If we would reject the existence of an allevil god due to the pervasiveness of good in the world, why can't we also reject the existence of an allgood god due to the pervasiveness of evil?
Dr. Max Baker-Hytch is a tutor in philosophy at Wycliffe Hall, Oxford University. He co-authored a paper on the so-called 'evil god challenge', objecting to it in various ways. So, he and I had this discussion, to see if the evil god challenge as I originally presented it can hold up.
