Theodicy and Challenges of Science: Understanding God, Evil and Evolution

This book addresses the challenging and old question of theodicy: If God is infinitely good, how can there be so much pain and suffering in this world? The special emphasis of the articles is on an interdisciplinary approach to this question, taking into account perspectives not only from theology and philosophy, but also from evolutionary theory, biology, medicine, anthropology, cognitive science, and many other related fields. This allowed our thirteen (13) authors to reflect on the intertwining of fundamental concepts such as evolution, nature, suffering, pain, values, evil, and good.
