Is God a Monster?: Why Evil Cannot Be Condemned Without God Kindle Edition

by Ajit Krishna Dasa (Author)  Format: Kindle Edition

Suffering and evil are often presented as the strongest arguments against God. If God exists, why does He allow this world to look the way it does?

This book turns that accusation on its head.

Rather than attempting to explain suffering away emotionally, it asks a more basic question: what makes suffering and evil condemnable at all? Moral outrage, injustice, and protest are not neutral reactions. They presuppose objective value, moral obligation, and a standard that transcends personal preference and social consensus.

Atheism relies heavily on these moral categories—yet cannot account for them on its own terms.

Drawing on rigorous philosophical reasoning and the worldview presented by A. C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupāda, the book argues that suffering and evil do not disprove God. They presuppose Him. Without God, suffering may be described, managed, or resisted, but it cannot be condemned.

This is not a sentimental theodicy, nor an attempt to make suffering comforting. It is a philosophical reversal rooted in the Bhagavad-gītā’s understanding of reality as morally structured, purposeful, and intelligible.

If evil is real, God is not the problem.
God is the precondition.
