After some introductory remarks, the second chapter briefly presents the life and main works of Franjo Šanc. The third chapter, which is also the central chapter of the article, is structured around five themes. The first theme is the basic assumption from which Šanc starts, and that is: there is a per-sonal God, and he is the Christian God, the creator and ruler of the world. The second theme is Augustine’s concept of evil as absentia or privatio boni, the fra-mework within which Šanc reflects on evil in the world. The third theme is Šanc’s central idea that in both physical and moral evil, God has a good purpose in mind, which does not always have to apply only to the individual, but can also apply to the whole world, and that evil does not necessarily exist. The fourth theme is Šanc’s argument that the existence of evil is proof of the existence of God, and not the reverse, as many authors claim and advocate. The fifth theme is Šanc’s answer to the question of the origin of evil. He says that evil exists for the greater glory of God. The conclusion of the paper briefly recapitulates Šanc’s philosophi-cal thought and presents the author’s conclusion that his philosophical position is acceptable to Christians, but not to those who are not familiar with ChristianityPrispevek obravnava razmišljanja filozofa Franja Šanca o problemu zla v svetu. Po uvodnih opombah drugo poglavje na kratko predstavlja življenje in glavna dela Franja Šanca. Tretje poglavje, ki je tudi osrednje, sestavlja pet tem. Prva tema je osnovna predpostavka, iz katere Šanc izhaja, in sicer: obstaja osebni Bog – to je krščanski Bog, stvarnik in vladar sveta. Druga tema je Avguštinov koncept zla kot absentia ali privatio boni – okvir, znotraj katerega Šanc razmišlja o zlu v svetu. Tretja tema je Šančeva osrednja ideja, da ima Bog tako v fizičnem kot mo-ralnem zlu v mislih dober namen, ki se ne nanaša vedno le na posameznika, ampak lahko velja tudi za celoten svet – in da zlo ne obstaja neizogibno. Četrta tema je Šančev argument, da je obstoj zla dokaz za obstoj Boga in ne obratno, kot trdijo mnogi avtorji. Peta tema je Šančev odgovor na vprašanje o izvoru zla: pravi, da zlo obstaja za večjo slavo Boga. V zaključku je na kratko povzeta Šančeva filozofska misel in predstavljen avtorjev sklep, da je njegovo filozofsko stališče sprejemljivo za kristjane, ne pa tudi za tiste, ki s krščanstvom niso seznanjeniTEXTznanstveno časopisjejournalsSlovenian National E-content AggregatorNational and University Library of SloveniaUniverza v Ljubljani, Teološka fakulteta
