And would if one man's suffering could inspire 10,000 more to lead a more virtuous life as a result? Job is a book which separates the wheat from the chaff, those who just want rewards for doing the right thing might not make it through tribulation if they believe in a simple God who always punishes evil right away, and always rewards good here on earth. Sometimes we have to wait longer than we would like for God's justice to shine.
That is a fractally fucked-up attitude. Deliberately causing suffering is evil, and using deliberately-caused suffering to inspire others is even worse.
Why do you worship an evil god, h311inac311?
