If God Created Everything, Where Does Evil Come From?
from Paradise Lost — An Investigation Hosted by S. Ashen
In this first episode of Paradise Lost — An Investigation, we begin with Book I and a deceptively simple question: if God created everything, where does evil come from? Starting from Milton’s opening lines, the episode follows a progressive investigation into free will, the Fall, Eve, Satan, rebellion and responsibility. Rather than treating Paradise Lost as a story with fixed answers, the reading develops through questions: if freedom makes disobedience possible, is freedom part of the solution — or part of the problem? This is not a summary of the poem. It is an evolving interpretation, grounded in Milton’s text and open to revision as the reading continues. Episode 1 — Book I Paradise Lost — An Investigation
