A friend pointed out I hadn’t posted in a while. This was something I spun up the other day for fun.
This solution is a substantial departure from existing attempts that I’m aware of.
For a good summary of the theodicy problem, you can go to The Philosophy Dungeon. The basic dilemma is if you are all-powerful, all-knowing, and all-good, how can there be evil?
Inspiration and ideas for this solution come from Kurt Gödel’s Incompleteness Theorem (Incompleteness Theorems on Wikipedia) and from Claude Shannon’s Information Theory (Information Theory on Wikipedia). I’m sure they would not be impressed by having any similarities drawn.
