But the problem of evil is not that simple.

Indeed.

But note that just the second theorem of Gödel provides a clue.

With provable(p) written []p
consistent(p) = ~provable(~p) = <>p
f = false, t = true
consistent = ~[]f = <>t = consistent(t),

Gödel’s second I. Theorem, put in equivalent version:

<>t -> ~[]<>t

<>t -> <>~<>t
<>t -> <>[]f

It is that last one where the clue is the more apparent:

Said by PA, or ZF, or any sound Löbian machine: it says the following:

If I am consistent, then it is consistent that I am inconsistent

Notice however that this assumes you know what t and f are.  In the formalism they are just markers that are invariant under the rules of inference.  In the semantics they refer to some model.  Beware of the priest who tells you he knows the real model.

Or

If I am consistent then it is consistent that I will prove a falsity

Peano arithmetic, or ZF, remains consistent when adding the axiom that they are (respectively) inconsistent.

Loosely, this says:

If shit does not happen, shit might happen.

This might be part of the shadow explaining the origin of evil ([]f) in the internal states realised in arithmetic.

PS Exercise; show that Gödel’s theorem (in its modal form) is just Löb’s formula with p replaced by false( f).

Solution: Löb’s formula is []([]p -> p) -> []p,

with p = f, this becomes

[]f([]f -> f) -> []f

Which is, as ~p = (p -> f), obvious by truth table of ~ and ->.

[](~[]f) -> []f

By transposition (using the fact that p -> q is equivalent with ~q -> ~p), we get

~[]f -> ~[](~[]f), or,

by using ~[]p = <>~p, and ~f = t, or ~~p -> p.

<>t -> <>([]f)
