DIE ON THIS HILL
philosophy

The existence of evil disproves a benevolent god

This hill is unclaimed. Nobody is willing to die on it. Yet. First blood pending.

  • Pay, and you hold it.
  • Anyone can dethrone you for more.
  • Every claim stays on the record.

No claims on the record.

The other side

A disproof requires the premise that no good reason for permitting suffering could exist. That premise is the weak link. A being who sees every consequence of every event would have reasons unavailable to creatures watching one lifetime from inside it. Parents allow pain for goods a small child cannot yet grasp. Evil makes belief harder. It settles nothing.
