Groothius argues that offering a defense against the problem of evil is more feasible than constructing a theodicy, as theodicies aim to provide a comprehensive explanation for why evil exists. Groothius believes that a defense can demonstrate that belief in God is reasonable despite the existence of evil, without needing to fully justify or explain the presence of evil in the world.
