Alvin Plantinga credits himself profusely for having defeated the logical argument from evil. Not so fast! He claims that he did so by merely making the logical assumption that God had His inscrutable ways that we just cannot fathom. Why that is just an argument from ignorance that blasphemes morality and- humanity! Turns morality topsy-turvy ! Perhaps I should let the murderer murder my wife so God can render greater good!
And while Israel is good , did the Holocaust and the subsequent Arab-Israeli series of horrors render the greater good that could have happened in a peaceful manner otherwise?
Then,too, he should first convey the grounds for belief in Heaven and his notion of free will as Roy Jackson would demand.^
Furthermore, the problem of Heaven eviscerates all defenses and theodicies!
