Evil, existence of God

Abstract

Problem of evil is an age-old problem, beginning perhaps from the very first moment of human existence in this world. The existence of evil raises objections especially against the belief in the God of love. That is, the existence of evil brings forth serious threats to our belief in the existence of God. So, we are led to search for the sources of religious thought to offer some resolution to the age-old problem of evil.
