Anti-theist theodicy is a term that refers to the philosophical arguments and explanations made by individuals who are anti-theistic, meaning they reject the existence of a deity or gods. In this context, theodicy refers to the attempt to reconcile the existence of evil or suffering with the idea of a benevolent and all-powerful deity.Anti-theists argue that the existence of evil and suffering in the world is evidence against the existence of a benevolent deity, and that the idea of an all-powerful and all-knowing God is inherently flawed. They may also argue that religious explanations for evil and suffering are insufficient and that it is up to individuals to find their own meaning and purpose in life, without relying on divine intervention or guidance.It is important to note that anti-theist theodicy is just one perspective on the existence of evil and suffering, and there are many other religious and philosophical perspectives that address this issue in different ways.

Quote from: OPtheodicies from ChatGPT...and what is ChatGPT's theodicy?
As an AI language model, I don't have personal beliefs or opinions, let alone a theodicy. A theodicy is a philosophical or theological explanation for the existence of evil or suffering in the world, often in relation to the existence of a benevolent and all-powerful deity.The concept of a theodicy is a complex one that has been debated by theologians, philosophers, and scholars for centuries, and there is no single, universally accepted answer. Different theodicies offer different explanations and perspectives, and the choice of a particular theodicy often depends on one's religious or philosophical beliefs, cultural background, and personal experiences.

Had to add this (then continue your discussion): I think there's a God (a force, a plan, whatever). But he/she/it just doesn't care. Doesn't that make more sense? He's the God of morality, the God of love, the God of adorable little puppy dogs. But also the God of murder, the God of hate, the God of genocide...
Does adding more Gods to the equation make things simpler?
