The question of whether the existence of evil in the world is
compatible with the existence of an all-knowing, all-powerful,
all-good God has been debated for centuries. Many have addressed
classical arguments from evil, and while recent scholarship in
analytic philosophy of religion has produced newer formulations of
the problem, most of these newer formulations rely on a conception
of God that is not held by all theists. In Bringing Good Even Out
of Evil: Thomism and the Problem of Evil, B. Kyle Keltz defends
classical theism against contemporary problems of evil through the
philosophy of Thomas Aquinas and his interpreters. Keltz discusses
Aquinas's thought on God, evil, and what kind of world God would
make, then turns to contemporary problems of evil and shows how
they miss the mark when it comes to classical theism. Some of the
newer formulations that the book considers include James Sterba's
argument from the Pauline principle, J. L. Schellenberg's divine
hiddenness argument, Stephen Law's evil-god challenge, and Nick
Trakakis's anti-theodicy.
