Here again is the Basic Problem of Evil:

1. If God is omnipotent, then God is able to prevent evil

2. If God is omnibenevolent, then God wants to prevent evil

3. If God is omniscient, then God knows how to prevent evil.

4. If a 3 “O” God exists, there is no evil.

5. There is evil.

6. Thus, a 3 “O” God does not exist.

Is this argument persuasive? Why or why? Be clear and precise in your comments (e.g. stating which step of the argument you are challenging or defending), and most importantly, be respectful and civil in your exchanges with others. Religion can be a sensitive topic for many people!
