Episode Synopsis "#16 Can God be Evil? - Refuting The Evil God Argument"

https://youtu.be/gJZeRsnd7cY The “Evil God Argument” is an attempt to demonstrate that all the arguments used to explain away evil or why evil exists while maintaining a belief in the existence of a good God can also be applied in reverse to an evil God.   If then we can easily dismiss the evil God arguments by what seemingly seems to be true about the world then similarly we should also dismiss a good God also. This argument has been popularised by Stephen Law as well as atheist YouTubers like CosmicSkeptic (Alex O’Connor) amongst others.   In this stream we look at whether there is any justification to favour the belief in the existence over a good God rather than an evil one.
