My Philosophy of Religion professor, Jason Moulenbelt, suggested “The Question of God: C.S. Lewis and Sigmund Freud Debate God, Love, Sex, and the Meaning of Life” by Armand M. Nicholi Jr. as a starting point for my research paper for his class. After downloading it from Audible.com and listening to it on my iPod, I decided to download “Mere Christianity” by C.S. Lewis and listen to it too. I’ll probably also read “Civilization and Its Discontents” by Sigmund Freud (it’s not available for download from Audible.com). I’ll probably write about the problem of evil from the diametrically opposed points of view of Lewis (the ultimate Christian apologist, who was once an atheist) and Freud (the ultimate atheist). My working title is “Evil? No Problem: A Theodicy”. Another possibility is “Necessary Evil: A Theodicy”.
