The answer to the The Problem of Evil could just be that "god" has a totally different definition of evil.

  • Certainly, that was the Gnostics viewpoint. It has as much merit as any other

  • That's certainly one definition of evil, yes

    Of course if you believe "God" set all of this in motion and with foreknowledge then even those seemingly random events have god's intent behind them, yes?

  • Well, we have a word for god so we must have a concept of god.

    Even if there's no objective phenomenon which corresponds to the concept, the subjective experiences alone are worthy of attention and consideration

    • Besides money/capitalism, why are tech companies trying to push AI text generators over search engines?

  • Allow me to add in an extract from the film "The Cube" which addresses this point

    WORTH

    It's maybe hard for you to understand, but there's no conspiracy. Nobody

    is in charge. It's a headless blunder operating under the illusion of a masterplan.

    Can you grasp that? Big brother is not watching you.

    QUENTIN

    What kind of fucking explanation is that?

    WORTH

    It's the best you�re gonna get. I looked and the only explanation I can

    come to is that there is nobody up there.

    QUENTIN

    Somebody had to say yes to this thing.

    WORTH

    What thing? Only we know what it is.

    QUENTIN

    We have no idea, what it is.

    WORTH

    We know more than anybody else. I mean somebody might have known

    sometime, before they got fired or voted out or sold it. But if this place ever had a

    purpose, then it got miscommunicated or lost in the shuffle. This is an accident, a

    forgotten propetual, public, worksproject. Do you think anybody wants to ask

    questions? All they want is a clear conscience and a fat paycheck. I mean, I lead on

    my desk for months. This was a great job!

    QUENTIN

    Why put people in it?

    WORTH

    Because it's here. you have to use it or admit it's pointless.

    QUENTIN

    But it is pointless!

    WORTH

    Quentin... That's my point.

  • Decades of politicians being shamed into resigning over a single sentence, rather than policy or outcomes, has left my country with politicians who speak in riddles so bland they never commit or say anything.

    • Senate unexpectedly passes the 'No Tax on Tips Act' in a unanimous vote

    Jump

  • That's how it's done in places with appropriate minimum wage laws.

    Tips are income so tax em, just make employers pay people properly!

    Using them as a way to avoid paying a living wage sucks.

    I'm not familiar, yet. My background is MS OS but going back as far as CLIs so I'm confident I'll learn fast.
