Abstract

Abstract This concluding chapter offers a concise summary of the present book’s main argument. The book contends that the problem of evil arises not only for traditional theists but also for atheists and other non-theists, including pantheists, axiarchists, and followers of Eastern religious traditions. The book argues that traditional theists, who usually espouse supernaturalism, are in a better position than atheists and other non-theists, who usually espouse naturalism, to respond to the problem because any potentially successful response requires supernaturalist resources. Moreover, the book suggests that if atheists/non-theists can develop a successful response to the problem of evil, it is likely that traditional theists can adopt it as well. Hence, the problem of evil should no longer be seen as a challenge only for traditional theists.
