| Abstract: | I argue that the logical problem of evil does not present the traditional theist with an inconsistent set of beliefs. I then defend Leibniz’s Best of All Possible Worlds defense against several objections and end by suggesting that good and evil are ontologically necessary counterparts akin to order and disorder. |
