The question of how to reconcile the existence of evil and suffering with omnipotent, omnibenevolent, and omniscient God. If God existed he would be powerful enough to prevent evil, and good enough to want to . Since there is evil, He cannot exist.

The Logical Argument

• A perfectly powerful being can prevent any evil

• A perfectly good being will prevent evil as far as he can

• God is perfectly powerful and good

• If a perfectly powerful and good God exists, there will be no evil

• There is evil

• Therefore there is no God
