I did not read anything pertaining to Theodicy. According to his book (And who knows maybe he is just trying to sell this book) his faith failed because of the falliablity he saw in the bible.
Theodicy is easily reconciled with a simple understaning and acceptance of Who/How God identifies Himself, and a departure of who/how we choose to identify Him in our various expressions of Christianity.
