What is the problem of moral evil?

AnswerClick to flip back
A
The existence of evil in the world is incompatible with the existence of a God who is both benevolent and just.
💡 Explanation:

The problem of moral evil is the problem of reconciling the existence of evil in the world with the existence of a God who is both benevolent and just. If God is benevolent, then he would not want to create a world in which there is evil. If God is just, then he would not allow evil to exist in the world.
