Evil comes from people or anything in general that promotes suffering. Suffering is the default state of life as pleasure is something that can exist in entirety. Life is filled with suffering and this is how it is and always will be.

Suffering is the cross that we must carry because life was meant to be a bitch! All of you will die. Embrace your suffering. Carry your cross, die on your cross, hope for the Resurrection.

We are all on death row. All is vanity, and a chase after the wind.

I will say that any wisdom or good qualities that I have were often the fruit of suffering. An athlete doesn't get stronger unless there is resistance.

We must be challenged to continue growing.

I don't hope for any such resurrection. I'm content to live my one life to the fullest.

What if you will be resurrected without your consent?

I feel it is completely on-topic to make the observation that this thread completely sucks.

Then hopefully I'll adapt to survive just like I've done thus far.
