As I mentioned earlier in answer to the "why does God allow bad things" debate: I have studied the Augustinian theodicy (evil because of Freewill and original sin), the Irenaean Theodicy (God creates man incomplete and we grow into completeness), and the Process theory (God just put things into motion and is more of a facilitator). There is also a relatively new theory known as Open Process (The only thing that is perfect is God's love).
Like most here I do not claim to have the answers (and do not necessarily require them); I have what is called faith.
When you don't have a satisfactory answer you choose to believe?
When someone else doesn't have a satisfactory answer to the same question and chose not to believe, does that make them closed minded?
