The Problem of Evil is a philosophical discussion that traditionally is attributed to the Greek philosopher Epicurious.  While it predates the monotheistic religions that dominate many cultures today, it is still a relevant logical argument when talking to theists today.

In this episode August discusses his pamphlet on the subject, which you can obtain by sending an email to info@mnatheists.org or by emailing Atheists Talk at radio@mnatheists.org
