The aim of this paper is to reduce Swinburne’s Christian centered theodicy into a pantheistic theodicy via modification of Spinoza’s necessitarianism. To begin‚ I will accept the imperative conditions of Swinburne’s theodicy up to a certain degree. Consequently‚ the primary condition Swinburne’s theodicy and my proposal each share is the consequentialist disposition of the Divine. However‚ the noted degree at which these theodicies will deviate is the condition demanding objective moral judgments

Though Anselm doesn’t expressly address the issue‚ it is clear (1) that he is attempting to show the existence of the God of classical theism; and (2) that the great-making properties include those of omnipotence‚ omniscience‚ and moral perfection. There are a number of plausible arguments for thinking that even this restricted set of properties is logically inconsistent.
