Title

'Process Theodicy':A Postmodern Alternative to Problem of Evil

Description

'Process Theodicy' provides us with  a constructive postmodren alternative to the 'tradtional' theodicity ,by redefining the omnipotence of God(one of the elements  of the incompatible triad) from a 'metaphysical' consideration of the nature of the world upon which the power is exerted.Unlike the traditional theists,who maintain  that all apparent evil is really ,from the utimate perpective ,a means to good ,process theists hold the view that the possibility of genuine evil is rooted in the metaphysical characteristics of the world.
