Arguing that both a version of theism (\"friendly theism\") and a version of atheism (\"friendly atheism\") are justified on the evidence in the debate over God and evil, O'Connor concludes that a warranted outcome is a philosophical d�tente between those two positions. On the way to that conclusion he develops two arguments from evil, a reformed version of the logical argument and an indirect version of the empirical argument, and deploys both against a central formulation of theism that he describes as orthodox theism. \u003ci\u003eGod and Inscrutable Evil\u003c\/i\u003e makes a valuable contribution to contemporary debates in the philosophy of religion.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Rowman \u0026 Littlefield Publishers","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":47591427014807,"sku":"9780847687640","price":7638.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9780847687640.webp?v=1774973024","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/god-and-inscrutable-evil-in-defense-of-theism-and-atheism-9780847687640","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
