You all seem to have no problem of accepting the reality of suffering until you inject God into the situation. You know that there are disasters, sickness, wars, crime and so on in the world and you just go on dealing with it. Most of the claims that I have heard in this forum state that the person's life is going pretty well despite all the horrors in the world. I don't understand why God must remove all these things from the world in order to be loving, and I do see good coming from suffering. If you give your children everything and shield them from all adversity, all you will end up with is spoiled brats who are unable to fend for themselves. If we approach suffering rightly, it will make us stronger and better people. And I never try to make excuses for God. If he does something a certain way, that's his business. I just try to live with what I have to face, with his help, knowing my goal.
