An Omnibenevolent God
The biggest threat to the idea of an omnipotent, omnibenevolent god is that of the "Problem of Evil".
1. If God is omnipotent then he is able to eliminate evil.
2. If God is omnibenevolent then he wants to eliminate evil.
3. Evil exists (i.e. it has not been eliminated).
4. Therefore God is either not omnipotent or he is not omnibenevolent
Other issues confounded by an omnibenevolent God:
How could an omnibenevolent God allow suffering?
How could an omnibenevolent God create evil? (If God didn't create
evil who did?)
Some say that evil comes from human free-will. But they also claim
that God made humans. If humans choose evil, isn't that what God
made us to do? Can we behave in a way other than God made us?
Then how could an omnibenevolent God create humans who will choose
evil, then punish them for doing so?
