At the end, people WANT to LIVE and are HAPPY that they are ALIVE. If life was so terrible, then people wouldn't want to live neither would they want to have children. Even in poor places where people have a hard time living, people are glad to be alive.
Life itself is a huge grace. Now arguing but a loving God would not allow suffering to me is like a child way of thinking. A child loves toys not realizing that one day he will grow out of that.
Whom is to say we are not developing towards something great? Towards divinity even perhaps. At least some people maybe.
Perhaps to develop towards that, we need a worlds of sufferring, adversity, where our compassion and love is put on the spot, where patience and courage is put on the spot, where forbearance and mercy is put on the spot...
Perhaps the next life is not this utopia people imagine, but we will continue in a world of problems and adversity, to keep on pushing our moral character to develop.
