Epicurus

Something that helped me to understand the alpha scene more and the questioning and confusion within the play is this:

"Is God willing to prevent evil, but not able? 
Then he is not omnipotent. 
Is he able, but not willing? 
Then he is malevolent. 
Is he both able and willing? 
Then whence cometh evil? 
Is he neither able nor willing? 
Then why call him God?"
-Epicurus

One of my lines in the alpha scene is "But to be fair to holly, it's a big question that every christian struggles with. I mean, if there is an all-powerful all-loving God, then why is there evil in the world?" which is an obvious indication that like many other characters within the play I am questioning my belief. This quote from epicurus sums up perfectly my own views and my characters views on belief in God and religion.
