The Problem of Evil
If we believe that God is the good and wise creator, then evil doesn't make sense. But if we as clever theologians or philosophers think we can make sense of it, then we're saying that actually God created a world within which there's a place for evil. And I remember when I was teaching in Oxford, one of my fellow examiners one year for the for the finals paper, set a question, would it be immoral to try to solve the problem of evil? Then what you're saying is something pretty drastic about the way the world is.
