What is the problem of evil?

AnswerClick to flip back
A
The problem of evil is the problem of reconciling the existence of evil with the existence of a benevolent and omnipotent God.
💡 Explanation:

The problem of evil is a philosophical argument that challenges the existence of a benevolent and omnipotent God. The argument states that if God is benevolent, then he would not allow evil to exist. If God is omnipotent, then he could prevent evil from existing. Therefore, either God is not benevolent or he is not omnipotent.
