Zara Mohammed speaks as First Proposition Speaker on 18th May 2023 at 8:00 in the Debating Chamber.
Does it make sense to believe in a God who loves us? Or, is the only God which could plausibly exist ultimately flawed and weak? Many faiths promote this idea of God being not just a powerful force, but a force which is just, merciful and fair. There is a long lineage of justifications as to why God allows suffering, but as we look at a world blighted by injustices as arbitrary as disease, others argue if God was good, would he really allow this?
