I believe that God doesn't exist due to the fact that if there is a supposed omni-benevolent God then why is the world is full of so much evil and suffering? Evil and suffering comes in two forms Moral evil and Natural evil. Moral evil is caused by humans using their free will, for example, crimes such as murder, burglary and war. Natural evil is suffering that has not been caused by humans such as earthquakes, floods, volcanoes, cancers and so on and are therefore not caused by humans. These natural evils can have catastrophic results with huge loss of life and human suffering.
It is be cause of this evil and suffering in the world that I began to reject my belief in God. If God is omnipotent (all-powerful), he must be able to remove …show more content…
For example, the UPD faces the obvious objection that if you have no idea what reason God has for allowing evil, then for all you know there is no justifiable reason at all for an all-good God to allow it. And even if the FWD and SMT were successful, they would still leave much apparently gratuitous evil unexplained.
But couldn't God have created a world without evil? Let's take a look at a few of the options. If God had not created anything, there would be no evil. But is nothing better than something? Hardly. This would be a world without morality. What if God created a world where people could not choose? God could force everyone to stop before they were able to carry out evil behaviour. But is such a world where freedom does not exist good?
As William Rowe points out, when a fawn burns to death in a forest fire and no human being ever knows about it, this apparently unnecessary evil neither preserves human free will nor builds the character of human beings. So what is the point in evil and suffering? There isn't one, and this is why I do not think God exists as there is no apparent reason for an Omni-benevolent, omnipotent and omniscient person to do such …show more content…
When the big bang produced a vast amount of positive energy, it simultaneously created the same amount of negative energy. In this way the positive and the negative energy add up to 0. So where is all this negative energy today? It’s in space. This may sound odd but according to the laws of nature concerning gravity and motion, laws that are among to oldest in science. Space itself is a vast store of negative energy, enough to ensure that it adds up to 0. The endless web of billions upon billions of galaxies each pulling on one and other with the force of gravity, acts like a giant storage device. The universe Is like an enormous battery storing negative energy. the positive side of things, the mass and the energy we see today is like the hill the corresponding hole or negative side of things is spread throughout space. So what does that mean on our quest to find out if there is a God? It means that if the universe adds up to nothing, then you don’t need a God to create it. Since we know that the positive and negative in the universe adds up to 0, all we have to do now is work out what or dare I say who triggered the whole process in the first place. What could cause the spontaneous appearance of a universe? at first, it seems a baffling problem. after all, in our daily lives things don’t just simply materialise out of the blue. you cant just click
