In this episode, we’re stirring the philosophical pot with a delightfully mischievous idea: the “Evil God Hypothesis.” What if—just go with us here—the universe were run not by a perfectly good deity, but by a cosmic supervillain who occasionally lets good things slip through the cracks? By flipping the script, we explore why people find belief in an all-good God reasonable, yet an all-evil god absurd—and whether that reaction actually holds up. We’ll dig into the origins of this argument and what this topsy-turvy thought experiment exposes about our assumptions regarding the divine. Join us as we have some fun turning theology upside down.
