By Ames C. Pennock and Ames Castle Pennock

Book Overview

The book ""The Problem Of Evil: Or Theory And Theology"" was written by Pennock, Ames Castle and was first published in 1877. The book explores the philosophical and theological problem of evil in the world, questioning why an all-knowing, all-powerful and benevolent God would allow evil to exist. The author discusses various theories and explanations for the existence of evil, including the free will defense, the soul-making theodicy, and the idea that evil is a necessary part of the world's moral development. The author also explores the impact of evil on human beings, including the psychological and emotional effects of suffering and the ways in which humans have attempted to cope with the reality of evil. The book presents a thoughtful and nuanced exploration of one of the most challenging theological and philosophical questions of all time.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
