RE: The Problem of Evil (POE)

in #philosophy5 years ago (edited)

I never had a problem applying the problem of evil to god - if an omniscient, omnipotent and omnibenevolent being doesn't interject to "help" it is indeed evil... but is inaction truly 'evil' is what I wonder... To me this should just be the problem of 'indifference' - we have an emo god - he's not a bad guy - he's just really depressed, cause he's a shitty creator. Or he moved on to more interesting things to do - is it evil to never revisit your own old drawings (they're so cringy)

My view on Evil is that there has to be an active agent in order for evil to come about. An inactive agent is nor good nor evil, its is simply a non-agent.

Sorry for my sloppy writing, it's been a while... :P

I love it. There may be some god(s) hanging around but they just can't be bothered to review their old work. I mean, it makes sense, they were probably totally into Earth for the first 7 days, but then when the upvotes turned worthless, they were probably like, screw this, I'm gunna populate some planets in the Andromeda system! And that'll get, like, tons of upvotes!!
