In Evil and Many Worlds: A Free-Will Theodicy, William Hunt
presents a unique approach to explaining how God and evil can
coexist despite the abundance of moral and natural evils blighting
our world, which imply that an omnibenevolent God is unlikely to
exist. This theodicy is based upon Huw Everett III's many-worlds
interpretation of quantum mechanics, whereby reality is not what it
intuitively seems; instead, it is a multiverse comprising a vast
number of universes, and we simultaneously exist in many of them.
This multiplicity of existence results in a balance of moral good
and evil across the multiverse, and through this, the expression of
free will-an attribute valued by both persons and God- flourishes.
The theodicy explains the coexistence of God and natural evil
through the necessity of an evolutionary process that ensures the
emergence of free-willed persons. Notwithstanding this universal
perspective of Creation, a resurrection possibility would mitigate
individual suffering resulting from this divine holistic strategy.
Hunt examines this possibility in light of the many-worlds
interpretation.
