>>103867642The problem of evil asserts that evil is a trait to be present, whereas Christian theology states evil is the absence of God's goodness in the same way darkness is an absence of light or coldness is an absence of heat. Suffering, then, is an evil that passes away in time and leaves only God's goodness, the issue being that, to accept that, you must already be on the side of the Christian God existing.
Epicurean evil is pain, not ill-intent.
