If He is all powerful, then He should be able to prevent it. If He is omnipotent and does nothing about evil, then we suspect that there are limits to His goodness, that there is something wrong with Him, that He is not all good. Perhaps He has an evil streak, or is truly malicious and we are merely His toys—expendable and counting for nothing. On the other hand, if we know the Creator is all good and we still see evil in the world, then there must be something wrong with His power. Perhaps He is not really all powerful. Perhaps there is some independent source of evil that He cannot control but struggles against. Or could a lack of knowledge possibly give rise to a weakness that limits his power? How can evil exist in a world created by a God who is both all powerful and all good? Must we say that the omnipotent good God does not exist? This problem is the greatest challenge to the reasonable person who believes in the Judeo-Christian-Islamic God. If He is truly the Creator, then why did He make such a world? The goal of this book is to inquire into and possibly shed light upon, some of the most interesting and at times most difficult issues in the problem of God and evil. These are: the nature and meaning of good—how subjectivity or objectivity and the idea of the good person function in the problem; the meaning of omnipotence; the idea of supererogation in the context of the goodness of God and the best possible world; the possibility of pointless evil and its relation to animal pain; the possibility of diminished human freedom and of war. I will try to consider such issues in a direct and concrete manner in an effort to appeal both to the advanced scholar and to the philosophically and theologically inclined reader. The bright, thinking person struggling with his or her existence cannot avoid this problem whose solution challenges the most sophisticated scholar. There are various ways to come up with some kind of solution to the problem, however unsatisfactory. One way is to prove conclusively that humans are not free, that all our actions are determined by antecedent conditions and causes. If humans are not free and God is all powerful, then the great evils of unkindness, insensitivity, infidelity, injustice, war and the like, the infliction of terrible harm on our neighbor—evils for which we ordinarily blame man—would rightfully be attributed to God. We would then have a strong reason for seeing God as an all powerful, but evil Supreme Being. The omnipotent good God of the Judeo-Christian-Islamic tradition would not exist. This was Herman Melville’s problem. He was profoundly affected by the evil that man does to his fellowman, the wicked things that the "depraved" impose on the rest of us. His "depraved," however, are predestined by God to their life of evil. So, it is not surprising that one of them, Captain Ahab of Moby Dick, strikes out against the God who has made him so. One way (if not the only way) to avoid the conclusion that the all powerful Creator is an evil God would be to see a reason why He would bring about such suffering. Simone Weil, a French philosophic mystic of World War II days, would say that we exist to suffer, for suffering is the means whereby we become united to the Creator and attain infinite bliss. This is a hard doctrine, for it is too open to the interpretation that when I am cheated, when this man is murdered, when this girl is raped, then God is directly responsible for the cheating, the killing, the raping. The answer cannot be so simple. Ordinarily we try to avoid such unfortunate happenings, but why should we if their occurrence implies that God intends to affect us so? 5 Another way to solve the problem of God and evil is to see omnipotence as so absolute that God has power over contradictions. This would do away with the problem, for there would be no impossibility or inconsistency that the Divinity cannot transcend; the tension between God and evil, of course, is one of those. God would be expected to be able to make a square circle and make someone who lost virginity to once again be a virgin. This is very troubling to a serious thinker. Another answer is to hold fast to the goodness of God and to downgrade His power. If there were an independent Supreme Evil with which God struggled, then God could be seen as good but not all powerful, and evil could be blamed as an independent source. Likewise, if at creation God had to fashion the world out of some pre-existent matter, then His (or Her) power would be fundamentally limited by what He had to work with. A variation of this latter view is offered by process philosophy. Another approach to the problem is to reject a deterministic view of man which has God directly intending to burden us with evils. This makes the defense of the good God easier. If man is truly free, then he and not God is really responsible for the cheating, the killing, the raping that goes on. At least, man is responsible for much of it. He does not have to be selfish, uncaring, and niggardly toward his fellowman. Such a defense takes something away from God’s power and leads us to ask whether God could have brought about a better world. Faith affords us another possible solution. For those who see the reasoned evidence for God as less than compelling, faith can take up where reason leaves off and can lead a person to accept the Creator as good and powerful. In this view, God as the source of all perfection is likewise the source of all good and the epitome of power. Mindful of one’s limited knowledge and of the way something that appears evil can turn out to be the source of good later on, a person holding such a view gives the benefit of the doubt to the Creator. A person concludes that God must have allowed the evil for a reason, or perhaps, that one’s own goal should be to find meaning in whatever happens, be it good or evil. In this way one can become convinced that everything works together for good. This would allow one by faith to accept the evil of the world. For some the existence of a good and all-powerful God can be attained by reason alone, for example, by means of the ontological argument. If one accepts God as the source of all perfections, as all good and all powerful, then by faith, again, one is inclined to accept evil as having some meaning in one’s life, however mysterious. The meaning of good and evil is obviously central to our problem. The rebel, Nietzsche, with a radical approach to this issue, goes so far as to link ‘good’ and ‘evil’ to power. Those in power decide what is good in the light of what is good for them, and those out of power see the powerful and their characteristics as evil. Nietzsche’s rejection of objective morality threatens to throw into confusion the whole question. If what is good and what is evil is so subjective, then how can the problem of God and evil make any sense as a worthwhile project? Surprisingly, however, this intellectual provocateur who wanted to turn values upside down can be classed alongside the believers like C.

Lapham Last week in Book Notes, we discussed Norman Mailer’s discovery in Superman Comes to the Supermarket of mediated America, that trifurcated world in which Americans live simultaneously in three realms, in three realities. One is based, more or less, in the physical world of nouns and verbs, which is to say people, other creatures, and things (objects) that either act or are acted upon. The second is a world of mental images lodged between people’s ears; and, third, and most importantly, the mediasphere. The mediascape is where the two worlds meet, filtering back and forth between each other sometimes in harmony but frequently in a dissonant clanging and clashing of competing images, of competing cultures, of competing realities. Two quick asides: First, it needs to be immediately said that Americans are not the first ever and certainly not the only 21st century denizens of multiple realities, as any glimpse of Japanese anime, Chinese Donghua, or British Cosplay Girls Facebook page will attest, but Americans first gave it full bloom with the “Hollywoodization,” the “Disneyfication” of just about anything, for when Mae West murmured, “Come up and see me some time,” she said more than she could have ever imagined.

  • Environmental Faust Succumbs to Temptations of Economic Mephistopheles, Or, Value by Any Other Name Is Preference
    ENVIRONMENTAL FAUST SUCCUMBS TO TEMPTATIONS OF ECONOMIC MEPHISTOPHELES, OR, VALUE BY ANY OTHER NAME IS PREFERENCE Carol M. Rose* THE ECONOMY OF THE EARTH: PHILOSOPHY, LAW, AND THE ENVI- RONMENT. By Mark Sagoff. Cambridge: Cambridge University Press. 1988. Pp. x, 271. $29.95. In several of the chapters to his new book, Mark Sagoff begins by telling some story to frame the remainder. One of these is particularly significant for the book: Sagoff retells a New Yorker joke in which the Devil tells the new entrants to Hell that they are leaving right and wrong behind, and entering a world of mere preferences (p. 99). The Devil signifies for Sagoff the economics-oriented policy analyst, and the story is prophetic because by the end of the book, that old prefer- ence-counting Devil has caught up with Sagoff. The word "environment" appeared in the titles of several of the earlier essays on which-the book is based,' but the book has wisely subordinated that E-word to a subtitle; despite the frequent invocation of natural wonders and scenic areas, the book doesn't really focus on the environment until the last chapter. Nope, this book is about that other E-word, Economics, which is so favored by the Devil. More specifically, at least until that last chapter, the book is about how dev- ilishly daffy economists are when they talk about the environment. Sagoff thinks their clever confusions are at best distracting and at worst antidemocratic (pp. 10, 95-97), and if we don't watch out, they are going to lead us off the ethical path and straight down the road to perdition.

  • What Is Causation?
    What is Causation? Stathis Psillos INTRODUCTION When we philosophers think about causation we are primarily interested in what causation is what exactly is the relation between cause and effect? Or, more or less equivalently, how and in virtue of what is the cause connected to the effect? But we are also interested in an epistemic issue, viz., the possibility of causal knowledge: how, if at all, can causal knowledge be obtained? The two issues are, of course, conceptually distinct but to many thinkers, there is a connection between them. A metaphysical account of causation would be useless if it did not make, at least in principle, causal knowledge possible. Conversely, many philosophers, mostly of an empiricist persuasion, have taken the possibility of causal knowledge to act as a constraint on the metaphysics of causation: no feature that cannot in principle become the object of knowledge can be attributed to causation. As we shall see, though philosophers have thought about causation for ages, there is hardly an agreement as to what causation is. Perhaps, this is reason enough to be sceptical about the whole prospect for a single and unified metaphysical account of causation. Perhaps, what we are trying to figure out causation is not one single condition with a determinate nature. But this crisis in the foundations of causation is no reason for despair. After all, we can know a lot about what causes what without knowing what causation is or better, without being committed to the view that causation is one single thing in the world. Causation is too precious to be given up.
