Alternate Title: The dilemma of evil. (English)
Authors: Pérez, Juan José
Source: Revista Batista Pioneira. dez2021, Vol. 10 Issue 2, p385-398. 14p.
Subjects: Natural law, Humanism, Theism, Good & evil, Theodicy, Psychological distress, Free will & determinism
Abstract (English): Evil exists in more than one form and should not be trivialized. Non-Christian worldviews show a great simplicity in relation to the subject. For cosmic humanism, evil is nothing more than an illusion or karma; therefore, it must be overcome or accepted. For naturalism, evil is the result of bad luck or chance; therefore, you have to get rid of it or get used to it. For some religionists, evil is the result of sin; therefore, one must repent and endure it. But, Christian theism recognizes from the Scriptures the complexity of the matter. Recognize that it is not a one-variable equation. That explains the number of theodicies that have been proposed: positive arguments, the greater good, free will, natural law, etc. But Christian theism not only proposes a complex answer to the existence of evil, but also presents the solution. God's decisive solution is not in a philosophy, but in a person, Christ, the Suffering Servant; and God's definitive solution will be in the consummation, when after having carried out His plan of redemption through the work of Christ and He makes all things new, where there will be no more sin (called moral evil), nor more damn; therefore, there will never be any anguish, neither tears nor pain (bad situation).

Abstract (Portuguese): El mal existe en más de una forma y no debe ser trivializado. Cosmovisiones no cristianas evidencian un gran simplismo con relación al tema. Para el humanismo cósmico, el mal no es más que una ilusión o un karma; por tanto, hay que superarlo o aceptarlo. Para el naturalismo, el mal es el resultado de la mala suerte o el azar; por tanto, hay que deshacerse de él o acostumbrarse a él. Para algunos religiosos, el mal es el resultado del pecado; por tanto, hay que arrepentirse y soportarlo. Pero, el teísmo cristiano reconoce a partir de las Escrituras la complejidad del asunto. Reconoce que no es una ecuación de una sola variable. Eso explica la cantidad de teodiceas que se han propuesto: Los argumentos positivos, el bien mayor, el libre albedrío, la ley natural, etc. Pero, el teísmo cristiano no sólo propone una respuesta compleja a la existencia del mal, sino que presenta también la solución. La solución decisiva de Dios no está en una filosofía, sino en una persona, Cristo, el Siervo sufriente; y la solución definitiva de Dios estará en la consumación, cuando después de haber llevado a cabo Su plan de redención a través de la obra de Cristo y haga nuevas todas las cosas, donde ya no habrá más pecado (llamado mal moral), ni más maldición; por lo tanto, ya tampoco habrá jamás angustia alguna, ni lágrimas ni dolor (mal situacional).
