Once a month, we get philosophical here on Nights.
Dan Weijers, a senior lecturer in philosophy at the University of Waikato tackles some of life’s biggest questions —whether it’s about love, death, or happiness.
Tonight, Dan takes on perhaps the ultimate question in Western philosophy: if God is all-knowing, all-powerful, and all-beneficent, how can there be so much suffering in the world?
