Theodicy Debate

Theodicy debate addresses how to reconcile the existence of an all-powerful, benevolent God with the presence of evil and suffering in the world. It questions why bad things happen if God is good and omnipotent. Some argue that evil is a result of free will or necessary for growth, while others see it as a mystery beyond human understanding. The debate explores whether God's goodness justifies the existence of evil and how faith and reason can coexist in explaining life's hardships.
