Here I respond to Trent Horn for the 912th time, this time on the problem of evil and the evil God challenge. NOTE (ADDED 3/21/26): This video represented my views at the time of recording. My views have changed since then, but I'm leaving the video up because it contains lots of helpful information, and also shows my thinking at the time. Like the show? Help it grow!
