I believe that Hick’s argument is definitely a compelling one, but I would have to disagree with the notion of the soul-making is a good reason for God to allow evil. In the Christianity doctrine God created a world without evil. with that in mind, it became evident that evil became part of this world when Adam and Eve disobeyed God by eating the forbidden fruits which ultimately lead to a world of chaos around us. I would agree however that evil in society lead mankind to continuously…

Initially intrigued by the dualistic themes of dark and light, and flesh and spirit, Augustine’s theological journey saw him trying to set his life in order by testing a variety of belief structures. Much of the focus of Augustine’s writing was in response to the Manicheans regarding the origin of evil, to…

also states that God possesses free will. And no one else. God does what he wants for the greater good. God has a will that is revealed and a will that is hidden. The will that is hidden revokes the human will and God’s word and will. It will pass, we should not question it, we should only adore it.

I find Hume to have a very original, thought out, and realistic take on how moral decisions are derived and where reason stands in one’s decision…
