Description: Panentheism Addressing Theodicy by Daniel J. Shepard Panentheism is an ontological system capable of compassionately resolving the issue of theodicy or what generically is termed as omni-benevolence. Leibniz and Theodicy, appears relatively unimportant when compared to the voluminous material found within the previous tractates. One must not forget, however, that we are dealing with abstractual concepts within the complete work of The War and Peace of a New Metaphysical Perception of which this tractate is an element. Abstractual concepts are not measured in terms of physical dimensions and thus cannot be compared one to another in our customary fashion. Abstractual concepts just are and as such abstractual concepts have not only no relative value of physical size one to the other but have no relative value of importance one to the other. Why then examine the concept of Theodicy which was introduced so eloquently by Leibniz rather than other more important aspects of Leibniz work? There it is again, the almost inescapable desire to place relative value upon one idea as opposed to another. So again we will ask the question but remove the concept of relative value from the question: Why then examine the concept of Theodicy? The concept of theodicy, as introduced by Leibniz, created a beacon which metaphysicians felt obliged to follow as they worked throughout the following centuries. Metaphysicians, by embracing the concept that perfection as defined by ontologists, in truth lost their way and simply perceived themselves to be metaphysicians when in actuality they became ontologists masquerading as metaphysicians. Such metaphysicians examined the personality of God versus the fundamental characteristics of the whole system within which we, elements of perceptual knowing, find ourselves to exist. Metaphysics does not deal with the personality of the whole but rather metaphysics deals with the basics, with what is. Ontology deals with the abstractual personality of the whole, which emerges from the existence of the whole itself. So for a third time: Why then examine the concept of Theodicy? ...
