Abstract

One of the main issues of theology and philosophy of religion is the problem of evil (Pain and suffering) and their re lationship with God and H is attributes. Because we may ask ourselves that how, from one hand, there could be an omnipotent, omniscient and benevolent God in the world, and on the other hand, he let many evils interfer in the world affairs and takes place. Dose his om nipotence, omniscience and ben evolence corresponds with the existence of ev ils? In this paper, from two different attitude (philosophers and theologians), i. e. Natural and Existential attitude will answer to this famous question. Theologians with their natural attitude will answer that both evils and goods are necessary in this world, because with the lack of evils nobody will appreciate goods and g od’s favor. So ev iles are indispensable part of this life and creation of the world. But philosophers with their existential attitude believe that the existence of evils like pains and suffering make human beings attention return to G od and metaphisical cuases as creator and main agent of this world, and especially comprehend their own initial needs to have a good relationship with them. Moreover, with experiencing pain and suffering, we will realize that others have endured suffering, so it is our duty to have sympathy with them.
