one minute theology
If you believe in god then it becomes one of those endless metaphysical debates(starting from the chicken egg analogy), because to acknowledge the existence of god is to deny the presence of evil which seems quite out of sort with practical life.
two ways out,
1.Minimise the powers of god, so god is no longer omnipotent/omnipresent hence an independent entity from evil.... which throws most religions into the bin.....
2.Become an atheist, which for me is quite funny because, how can u disbelieve something as abstract as that of a concept.its something like i dont believe in 2£@%&^%*...(say its a concept)...so we are entangled in choice either way....
The problem arises because science with its strengths and limitations(one of the most important of them being language) cannot disprove the presence of god.Mind you im not saying about not proving the absence of god.Most instincts of the masses prefer taking the middleground instead.'both evil and good are needed for life like day and night'
Escape hatch? godel's theorem??? But again the fundamental question remains what makes anyone believe?
