The description of something as evil, or not, is governed by the values of the one who is considering the problem. Suffering is as natural as living and can claim no religious adherents, just as a chemical reaction has no regard for the heat or cold it generates, as long as its chemical reaction is completed. As with evolution it has no way of evaluating whether it is good or bad. Every act that is seen as evil by someone, offers a benefit for someone else no matter how shallow we may regard that gain.

Why is there evil and suffering?

A lot of people ask themselves...If God is all powerful and loving, then why is there evil and suffering in the world. Evil as in crime and murder and suffering as in earthquakes, hurricanes or even an illness. What I have learned in my R.E lesson is that if there is no evil and suffering, there is no generosity in the world and the best thing I like about Islam is that most of it is to do about thinking less about yourself and thinking more about others. Most important is to give to charity. If there is no suffering, there is no charity, and if there is no charity, less people will think about others.


Do Christians need to destroy Islam?

A:Whatever answer I give will not suffice if you believe this should happen. So I should let you say whether Christians need to destroy Islam. Do you believe Christianity is a religion designed to cause suffering and evil? Do you believe that by creating untold suffering and evil, we can eliminate suffering and evil? Do you believe that Christianity can not survive as a faith if there are other faiths available for people to choose from? If the answer to any of these questions in 'No' then Christians do not need to destroy Islam.It is true that some Muslims have caused suffering and evil in the world, as have some Christians. This does not justify attacks on the good people who follow either faith.


Where did evil come from and why is there suffering in the world?

A:In philosophy, this is called the problem of evil and suffering. Evil must come from somewhere, but if God is all-powerful, all-knowing, all good, and the sole creator of the world, then why is there evil and suffering? The problem can only be resolved if at least one of these propositions is false. Therefore if God is all-powerful, he is either not all-knowing and is therefore unaware of all the evil in the world, or he is not all-good and is unconcerned about all. Evil and suffering exist because at least one proposition of religion is false.
