Sažetak
In my presentation, I will briefly present the evidential problem of evil in contemporary analytical philosophy of religion and one of the most common theodicies, so-called Augustinian Free Will Theodicy (FWT). My main focus will be on the extensions added to the FWT so that it could provide better reasons for explaining natural evils and horror evils (van Inwagen 1999), i.e. evils with no apparent reason. The extensions I am dealing with are primarily the hypothesis that natural evils are the result of the Fall of Men, or the Original Sin, and secondary, the hypothesis that the suffering of the innocent (horror evil) is also somehow the result of the Original Sin. I will present possible problems FWT could have with these extensions could have if it presupposes philosophical theism and, at the same time, if it maintains traditional Christian philosophical hypotheses derived from the scriptures.
