The Theory of Knowledge and Existence
Walter T Stace
The problem of
evil assumes the existence of a world-purpose. What, we are really
asking, is the purpose of suffering? It seems purposeless. Our question
of the why of evil assumes the view that the world has a purpose, and
what we want to know is how suffering fits into and advances this
purpose. The modern view is that suffering has no purpose because
nothing that happens has any purpose: the world is run by causes, not
by purposes.
