Document Summary

Any created moral agent (rational being) is morally corruptible. A subject is of free will if and only if it is in their power to will otherwise. Response to 3 objections: if god is all-powerful, then god can determine that beings of free-will will only do what is good, if god is all-powerful, then all that happens must happen according to god"s will. If humans will evil, then god wills that humans will evil. P1: if a being is of free will, then it is logically possible that it will only what is morally good. P2: if god is all-knowing, then god knows which possible beings of free will would will only what is good. P3: if god is all-powerful, then god can create just those who will only what is good. P4: if god is all-good, then god wants to create just those who will only what is good.
