Evil perplexes us all and threatens to undermine the meaningfulness
of our existence. How can we reconcile the reality of evil with the
notion of a God who is perfectly good and powerful? Process
theodicy, whose foremost proponent is David Griffin, suggests one
answer: because every being possesses its own power of
self-determination in order for God to attain the divine aim of
higher goodness for the world, God must take the risk of the
possibility of evil. Divine Power and Evil responds to Griffin's
criticisms against traditional theodicy, assesses the merits of
process theodicy, and points out ways in which traditional theism
could incorporate a number of Griffin's valuable insights in
progressing toward a philosophically and theologically satisfactory
theodicy. It provides a new and important contribution to a
long-standing debate within philosophy of religion and theology.
