YouTube Description
as posted by the channelCan the reality of suffering disprove a good God? Oxford Philosopher Dr. Stephen Law and Christian minister Rev. David Robertson debate the problem of evil, the evil God hypothesis, and whether suffering is evidence for or against theism.
Does Christianity provide a meaningful answer, or does the sheer amount of suffering make belief in God irrational?
Law presents the evidential problem of evil and his “evil God” challenge. At the same time, Robertson defends the Christian view that suffering can be reconciled with a loving God through free will, morality, and the hope found in Christ. From the nature of evil to the philosophical implications of faith and atheism, this thought-provoking conversation tackles one of life’s biggest questions.
**** Please note: In this video, David is incorrectly labeled as "Dr." in the on-screen captions. His correct title is "Rev." We apologize for the oversight and wanted to clarify.
