Augustine’s answers to the problem of evil; Aquinas Natural law

Everyday there are certain events that happen in our society, those events might be accidental and there are also intentional, every minute and every second in our life there are people who are fighting against their diseases their illnesses that they feel which is their burden and main cause of their suffering, those particular people might question God, if why he is allowing all of that to happen?, why there are certain calamities and disasters in our world which cause millions of people to killed and some aren’t know where they will go because those disaster destroy their houses, those question come into their minds because of struggle that they are experiencing, those are what we called the natural evil, the disasters and the different illnesses that those people are struggling. The answer to the question of many people that are asking is that everything happens for a purpose and some “natural evil” may be the result of necessity.

Scientist-theologian John Polkinghorne suggests that “God has created a universe with particular natural laws that make life on earth possible so that humans with free will can exist in the first place. As an example, the same weather systems that create tornadoes that kill humans also create thunderstorms that provide our environment with the water needed for human existence”. Meaning everything happens for a purpose, and also God allow all those natural evils to happen because first it is the necessary consequences of all the bad actions and decisions made by the humans which forget its limitations and harm the environment including many people, just like continuous deforestation and mining which forcedly get the habitat of the animals and the home of other indigenous people, and also most especially it will affect the climate and the health of every living things. Third reason is that God wants humans to have their faith stronger, get attached to him and develop its Godly character, God just want to test our faith during those challenges it molds us to be a better person, there will be more realization and more forgiveness which will lead us nearly to God, and will surely manifest its moral its moral and Godly character.

People are naturally good, the goodness in their hearts is in born, but how come that the evilness or the bad actions exist, it is because the absence of good, people do the evilness people act immorally because they are forgetting the real meaning of the true good, everything that God created is good, the problem is that humans let their emotions control them, their anger and their hatred leads them to act immorally and to evilness.
