Episode 11: “Theodicy” - The Problem of Evil, Pain & Suffering




Brew Theology Podcast show

Summary: <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> For thousands of years humanity has wrestled with suffering.<br> Buddhism starts with the noble truth that all of life consists of suffering. Aching<br> for meaning and seeking religious insight, humans have grappled with karma, and<br> brought theodicy – attempting to answering the questions of why a good deity<br> permits the materialization of evil – to light in an age of uncertainty, doubt<br> and confusion. While suffering is relative, and in some cases easier to make<br> sense (i.e. working out and working hard has a “pain” component), the deeper<br> questions ask, “Why do bad things happen to good people?” &amp;, “Do all events<br> have a purpose?” Is God all powerful and able to stop A, B or C? Then Why...?<br> In Episode 11 of the Brew Theology Podcast, Ryan and friends - Vlad, Amanda, Andy &amp; Kyle - hash out the most age-old and relevant questions regarding trauma. God is on trial, indeed...  <br> Enjoy the episode, friends. &amp; Share the hopilicous brew.<br> Follow &amp; "Like" Brew Theology on <a href="https://www.facebook.com/brewtheology/">Facebook</a> &amp; <a href="https://www.instagram.com/brewtheology/">Instagram</a> (@brewtheology) &amp; <a href="https://twitter.com/brew_theology">Twitter </a>(@brew_theology).
