The argument presented by St. Thomas Aquinas is superior to the argument presented by Ghandi because it is consistent with and in accordance to what know to be truths concerning justice.

evaluate The Problem of Evil: Against the Existence of God. I believe that the following argument is unsound because there is a premise missing. If the addition of this premise was present‚ I believe that the structure of the argument from premise 3 and down would change. This change would allow the argument to be both valid and sound.

Essay #1: Aquinas’ 3rd Way: Aquinas’ third way argument states that there has to be something that must exist‚ which is most likely God.
