Suppose you have trapped your leg in a machine at work.
Now I see that you're caught and with the simple flick of a switch I could release you from your suffering.
But instead I say that the pain and subsequent loss of your leg will make you a better person.
And you might even end up as a world champion in the disabled Olympics.
What would you think of me?
First of all, you seem to be assuming that God wouldn't flick the switch to save your leg. Anyway, what if you tell me I have a destiny to fulfill for the good of mankind, and it can only happen if I lose my leg? But afterwards I will be given a new, perfect body and will live happily for eternity? You know, I've always dreamed of winning a gold medal in the Olympics.
