    “Religious language is meaningless” The problem of religious language considers whether it is possible to talk about God meaningfully if the traditional conceptions of God as being incorporeal‚ infinite‚ and timeless‚ are accepted.

    RS 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?
