Enrollment is now live for the Fall course on The Problem of Evil (taught by Steph) at St. Louis Park Community Education. The course will cap at 15 students.
“Is God willing to prevent evil, but not able? Then he is not omnipotent. Is he able, but not willing? Then he is malevolent. Is he both able and willing? Then whence cometh evil? Is he neither able nor willing? Then why call him God?” – Epicurus
In philosophy, the problem of evil represents rational inquiry as to how an all-powerful, all-good entity could allow for the existence of evil in the world. This rigorous academic course for theists and non-theists alike will consider historical and contemporary formulations of the problem of evil from multiple religious and philosophical perspectives. No prior experience in philosophy required; all are welcome in this collaborative and analytical environment, with beginners especially encouraged.
