After many requests, I am responding to the typical objection of the “problem of evil” if there is a Being who is All Loving and All Good, how can He permit evil? In this brief Q n A I will respond to the 3 main objections from our philosophic perspective as outlined in Job and other places in patristics. Our view of evil is that it is a privation, a negation and a move of the will away from the Good. It has no being in itself and ontological existence.
Picking up where we left off on the last defense of theology and philosophy stream, I return to questions of apologetic method, the ontological status of numbers, logic and other invariant conceptual entities, the nature of metaphysics and transcendental arguments, the relationship of historical philosophy to dialectics and why dialectics must be avoided. We will also discuss revelation in Scripture in terms of the epistemic authority, the circularity of foundational truth claims at a fundamental level, as well as your questions. How do numbers prove God?
