ABSTRACT

Most of the arguments considered so far concerning the existence of God have had theistic conclusions. Sometimes it is thought that the fact that there is evil in the world proves that there is no God. Traditional theodicy has claimed that some evils have the property of being "soul-building". Soul-building evils are the ones that make the reader better people. The soul-building evils that an all-PKG God would allow the reader to experience are a tiny portion of the evils the people need to explain. All of the versions of the Argument from Evil that the author have surveyed attempt to pinpoint exactly how much evil there should be if an all-PKG being existed. It is called the evidential argument from evil. Is the evidential argument from evil correct in its claim that the kinds and quantities of evil that exist in the people world are evidence against the existence of an all-PKG God.
