Exploring the Philosophical Discussion of Evil and God's Plan

The chapter delves into the philosophical intricacies of evil within the context of God's plan, discussing how evil is permitted rather than directly caused by God. It explores the concept of permission, divine predilection, and the question of why God creates in a certain way.
