Recognizable Goodness”: A Response to Beversluis’ Understanding of God’s Goodness

In her rebuttal to John Beversluis’ C. S. Lewis and the Search for Rational Religion, Emily McCarty makes the following arguments. Lewis maintains throughout these three works that God’s goodness is recognizable. In The Problem of Pain, what seems unlike or even not good to us, is upon reflection, good. In fact, there are similar human examples that show God’s goodness is not so very unlike our own. In “The Poison of Subjectivism,” Lewis does not empty good of meaning: rather he sources that meaning in the divine so that our morals have enduring meaning. In A Grief Observed, Lewis is not denying recognizable goodness by accepting what has happened; He is acknowledging that God knows more than him, including more about morality. God’s goodness is recognizable, but one must be willing to accept that God knows more than we do

Omnipotence, Omnibenevolence, and Evil

This paper attempts to defend the attributes of omnipotence and omnibenevolence in light of evil. Possible worlds can be used to show that God perhaps has reasons for permiting evil, and these reasons can reconcile God\u27s attributes with the existence of evil. Using Plantinga\u27s Freewill Defense, free will is seen to be a conduit for moral good, but because of transworld depravity, some evil is present along with this good. Flemming objects to this account and seeks something stronger. Through evil\u27s presence, we learn to identify it and learn to show benevolence to one another in light of its presence. Eleonore Stump\u27s work on suffering is used to show that there are spiritual goods that suffering can bring. Suffering is used to bring us into relationship with God and this is an indispensable good, according to Aquinas. God’s omnipotence and omnibenevolence can be defended in light of evil

A Study of the Feasibility of Using a Pulping Aid with Polysulfide Kraft Cooks

The purpose of this paper was to determine the feasibility of using a pulping aid with a polysulfide kraft cook. Since any change in an operation such as pulping must yield a product such that the quality is better or not appreciably reduced and at the same time must be economically acceptible, the feasibility was based on these factors. Tests were made on a standard kraft cook, a polysulfide cook, a cook using the pulping aid alone and a cook using the pulping aid with the polysulfides. From the work conducted, there were no significant changes in the physical and optical tests performed while at the same time, a slight increase in the yield over the standard kraft cook was noted
