Hello everyone,
As many of you know I am a lapsed Mormon who for years now has been investigating more traditional forms of Christianity. I sometimes peruse the podcasts of a website called "Mormon Matters" which is a website independent of the LDS church where Mormons discuss things such as current events, philosophy, and psychology.
In the most recent podcast the participants take up the problem of evil from a Mormon perspective. Two of the theories they discuss are process theology, which holds that God is not all powerful and still has the potential to progress further, and protest theology which states that God is not all good. I thought I would get your thoughts on these two alternatives to the traditional view of God and see if you can come up with any problems resulting from such views. Below is the link if you want to actually listen to the podcasts:
119â121: The Problem of Evil and Suffering | Mormon Matters
P.S. I will be taking the GRE a week from today and I humbly request your prayers going into the exam.
