Reason Round Table: A weekly discussion group for thoughtful, curious people

Details

Theodicy: How can the existence of suffering, especially profound, seemingly unjust, or senseless suffering, be reconciled with the idea of an omnibenevolent, omnipotent God? How convincing are the ways in which theological, philosophical, and cultural traditions have attempted to address this conundrum? How do these explanations hold up in light of contemporary moral reasoning, our understanding of justice and goodness, and the lived experiences of suffering?
