Resumo:
The problem of evil is something that, unfortunately, is present in the history of humanity and that affects human beings, regardless of their belief, religion or culture. Allied to this, we can consider evil as the open wound of theology and the rock of atheism. However, despite its unbeatable presence, this problem needs to be tackled through responsible, coherent and obstinate Christian praxis. That said, this research, through a literature review, aims to propose a coherent and relevant reflection on the problem of evil and the presence of a loving and kind God. Therefore, to concatenate these two facts, which apparently seem contradictory, we will resort to the theology of the German theologian Jürgen Moltmann as a proposal of resistance in the face of the problem of evil. For this, we will start this research reflecting on the problem of evil in a Christian philosophical and theological perspective, since the human being has always sought a rational and/or theological solution to this problem. Next, we will ask ourselves about the place of God in suffering, presenting the Moltmannian theology from the theobiography of our author, passing through the theologies of hope and the cross, arriving at the exercise of God s justice. After this stage, we will come to the question about the place of human beings in the face of evil and how they should act in society based on Moltmannian theology. Thus, we hope that this reflection produces a feeling of nonconformity, resistance and denunciation of the human being in relation to the amount of evil and suffering experienced by society.
