Yujin Nagasawa

Yujin Nagasawa, a distinguished Professor of Philosophy at the University of Birmingham, dives deep into the complexities of evil and optimism. He explores how existentialists like Camus interpret happiness amidst suffering while addressing the stark realities of animal pain through a theistic lens. Nagasawa also questions whether guided evolution can justify current suffering and compares the challenges faced by theists and atheists in explaining evil's existence. The philosophical debate culminates in a vigorous discussion on meaning, morality, and the nature of hell.
