I find many theistic responses to the problem of evil to be weak. When we look at the logical problem of evil—the idea that God’s existence is logically inconsistent with suffering—the two most common counterarguments are free will and the good-evil equilibrium. But both of these arguments have serious flaws.

  1. The Free Will Defense
    This argument claims that God allows evil to exist because stopping it would take away our free will. The idea is that God, who is all-knowing, all-powerful, and perfectly good, lets suffering happen because interfering would undermine our ability to make meaningful choices. If God stepped in to stop evil, they say, it would mean taking away our freedom, which would be worse than allowing suffering.

Problems with This Argument:

Free Will Might Not Be Real: This defense assumes we have complete free will—that we can make choices entirely independently. But science and philosophy suggest otherwise. Our decisions are shaped by biology, environment, and other factors. If free will is an illusion or limited, then God stopping evil wouldn’t actually violate our ā€œfreedom,ā€ because we don’t truly have that kind of freedom in the first place.

What About Natural Evil?: Even if free will exists, this argument doesn’t explain natural evil—suffering that isn’t caused by humans, like natural disasters, diseases, or genetic disorders. If free will is the reason God allows evil, why does non-human-caused suffering exist? This isn’t addressed, which weakens the argument.

  1. The Good-Evil Equilibrium Argument
    This argument says that evil is necessary for good to exist. For example, they claim that without pain, there’s no relief; without sadness, there’s no happiness. In other words, evil gives meaning to good.

Problems with This Argument:

Evil Doesn’t Always Lead to Good: This assumes that suffering always results in something positive, but that’s not true. Trauma can lead to despair, not growth. For instance, losing a child might teach some people gratitude, but it can also destroy lives or cause lifelong pain.

Good and Evil Aren’t Inseparable: Pain and relief, sadness and happiness, aren’t inherently connected. They come from different biological systems. Pain receptors and pleasure systems work independently, so it’s possible to have relief without pain or happiness without sadness.

Why So Much Suffering?: Even if some evil is necessary, the amount of suffering in the world seems excessive. This is where the evidential problem of evil comes in. Why does God allow extreme, seemingly pointless suffering—like pediatric cancer or genocide? If the goal is to teach us moral lessons, why not do it with less suffering? For example, does a parent really need to lose a child to learn gratitude? Couldn’t they learn the same lesson with far less pain?

#

Go ahead and point all those contradictory assumptions and give ur reasoning for why they are contradictory

prisma cipher
#

We have free will we don't have free will

#

God is good, god is evil, god doesn't exist, I make several contradictions.

#

Like pointless talking

dusk ivy
#

That doesn't make what I said contradictory. I'm not trying to defend or argue against free will, if I was then my arguments would have been contradictory. I'm arguing against counter arguments to problem of evil which I did from several points of view.

# dusk ivy I find many theistic responses to the problem of evil to be weak. When we look a...

I'd generally never deal with the first argument as I don't deal with free-will, nor do I believe in it. However, the second argument is very obvious a caricature of its derivative. Firstly, the argument from evil often times is build upon the notion that evil is a privation; "evil" is not a thing, it's a lack of a thing. Every evil act takes reference to some desire for Good, what makes it 'evil' is that it does so at the expense of other's good. If a serial killer didn't get pleasure from killing, he'd not be a serial killer.

Secondly, the argument is clearly build on an anthropomorphic basis. You're presupposing that "suffering" is unnecessary; and you're doing that exclusively by regarding 'man' as a measure for all things. Man is not a measure of all things, so far as you accept that the universe would still exist without us, and this part of the argument is therefor trivial. However, in considering it, the basis of the argument is very obvious build upon a teleological framework that presupposes that all suffering does not have an end; this however falls into a trap: That we can reduce all suffering exclusively to individual circumstances, without consideration of an external party. There's several complex psychosocial phenomenon to consider, however, avoidance of suffering itself is a cause of much good. So merely the 'idea of suffering' can itself induce good. Assuming this, it's arguable that pain does always generate good; even if we can cherrypick individual circumstances where someone suffering it does not experience much good at all

#

So in considering the first, it's obvious that all agents, whether Good or "evil," partakes of Goodness, and never evil. This is further demonstrated by the thought experiment of an evil man vs. a good man: Can an evil man exist without goodness? As we've noted, all evil relies on a hedonic pleasure principle. If I get no pleasure from doing evil, I've no desire to commit to it. Hedonic pleasure would constitute a form of goodness; even if at the lower end of the spectrum. Therefor, we cannot envision an "evil man without good." But we can envision a good man without evil. Evil therefor relies on goodness, because it's only a "lack of," not itself a thing.

There's no "free will" argument that I'm aware of that's meaningfully refuted it either. Only compatibilists has been able 'to refute' this position - But compatibilists are in practice determinists

And is also the most accepted position among philosophers, 59% are compatibilists, or "soft-determinists," with an additional 24% being hard determinists

Only strong argument for free-will is the one based on physics and probability - This argument however fails because it conflates random fluctuation in space and time with me being able to make independent decisions - Even if it means my decisions aren't literally pre-determined by cause-effect, it still does not entail that I am able to make free decisions, because my decisions are decided by the randomness

# mystic bay Compatibilists are not just determinists 'in practice'. They just are determinis...

I'd perhaps caution with this formulation. You're right that they're for all intent and purposes determinists; however, the important distinction lays in how they treat agency. In determinism, we're often presented with agency as either non-existent or at best illusory; in compatibilism, it's treated as an active part in the process of determination; even though it's still a part of a chain-of-causality

elder seal
# mystic bay it's compatibillism vs. incompatibilism, within deterministm

That's new information to me - I suppose I'd agree with it in terms that compatibilism would service within the framework of determinism neatly, as compared to 'free will.' However, most questionnaires who often analysis whatever philosophy students believe often time formally distinguish 'compatibilism' from determinism and free-will

mystic bay
elder seal
# mystic bay That is true, although that is explained by widely held incompatibilist assumpti...

Sure! Though, I'd not necessarily disagree with you - I'd rather regard these matters as down to framing. That determinism and free-will are often assumed to be incompatibilist and are therefor distinguished from compatibilism in common discourse. Though, I'm definitely in the crowd that regards compatibilism as determinist (why I said it was practically the same) - Though, in popular discourse, I'd still go with the assumption mentioned.

elder seal

The distinction is that there's plenty of metaphysical inquiries into the existence of God; different metaphysics direct us to different framings

After a point, it is inconclusive, yes.

It's just something one would believe in, if they wish to. Doesn't matter what the truth is, if there is any objective truth to it at all.

Yuh-uh. He asks if physics can say something on consciousness, which it can.
Specifically, the recent evidence is highly suggestive of quantum entanglement being an explanatory variable in understanding consciousness; specifically due to anesthetic research which was the initial theoretical fundamental on it.

So it can tell us lots. The question is to what degree it's true - Empirical evidence so far is strongly in favor of the position that quantum entanglement can be a key to understanding consciousness, though you're right that we have no "definitive" evidence, though as in most science, evidence is never 'definitive.'

When you say 'well, you can turn it down to a lower volume to let it heat up the inside,' well guess what, that's what we're doing epistemically when discussing free-will and determinism!

#

It's only qualitatively different

Lots of topics can be explained using the ant analogy

I'd gladly prove it to you as well

It's easily experimental ,you can do it at home

An ant inside an electric circuit sees it as just it's enviroment. The topics such as "free-will" , "consciousness" , "infinity" are the same for us. These are our enviroment which we evolved in hence cannot evolve past them to be able to comprehend them.

What is the counter argument for this?

Nuh uh the aliens will come and grant us wisdom or something?

elder seal
#

You're actually proving my point. Which is why this is so funny

#

Why do we know that it's heat transfer? I wonder.

elder seal
#

So you're right, we can "rhetorically" discuss things as if free-will exist. That doesn't make it true. That's why we extend the subject to encompass broader spheres, which is where we often reach determinism.

Idk about that. Every individual has a personality. A person can be good and bad too at different times of life even in a single day.

But mind you humans have a herd mentality as well.

When I said 'the better muslims' i referred to how sub continent muslims are wannabe Arabs and display even more conservative appeal to life. The reasoning behind is, in the recent years saudi arabia been conducting dance and music festivals in their country and desi muslims are going bonkers over the fact. Why do I know this ? Because the comments are in desi languages which are readable without translation

Not really. Most ordinary citizens simply do what they're told to - And act according to the way things are phrased and framed. They have as much say in how culture is shaped as they do in policy - Which is little. At best you can say that they shape how those that shape them will shape them. But that'd be a fairly meaningful framing

#

Should and do are two very different things - Most ordinary people are not interested in knowing politics. That's why it's only an organized elite that rules society. If we are to merely look at economic theories, we quickly find the term "rational ignorance." People are ignorant about politics, because it's rational to be ignorant. We're not even considering far worse outcomes like irrational ignorance here, which is an even worse proposition, but even the most realistic commentator and theoretical framings tells us that the average people will never be qualified voters

for the seek of argument ,does that justify establishing colonial occupation, illegal settlement and ethnic cleansing against other indigenous ppl ?.

I think the establishment of isreal is not justifiable in any shape or form, nor I find a need for it.
and if its not Justifiably then its questioning Isreal legitimacy to establish their state ,and that how subject could be closed.

moreover indigenous Jews from Palestine were living under Islamic empire for decades ,having access to their own holy sites and practicing their religion freely they were equal to other Muslims and Christians in statue.

Nobody's specifically discussed those subjects; what was discussed was the problematic character of the claim of being indigenous as a flawed position - In that, it's arbitrarily delineated. Also, the claim here has certain assumptions you've got to expand on.

Also, the past does not matter to the subsect; the fact is, you're in the present. A state is justified on its own basis; there's as much justification for one as opposed to the other. You're in the present now, noT 1920s or 1930s.
