If there is a god, why does so much suffering exist?

[Sazidhassan]

Why?

[ChicoFromThe305]

Free will, if God intervened and forced people to do good then free will just wouldn't exist, I do partially believe that forcing everyone to do good was the way to go I guess people are very fortunate that God loves them enough to allow them to make their own decisions, cause even God himself knows that if I was in his position I would've forced every single one of you to obey. I hope considering my option people that read this would see why they are fortunate.

Wise answer 👍🏻

[Sazidhassan]

I think forcing people not to do crimes would be a better way to deal

[ChicoFromThe305]

I guess it depends if you care about free will or not, but that would more than likely mean you wouldn't be on here asking this question, you'd be worshipping or something right now, your free will is what gave you the ability to come on here and ask this question, I dont think you understand what a world without free will really is, even just to go use the bathroom you have to ask permission, forcing people not to do crime would stop crime but it will force everyone to worship God, which as a Christian I'll say it would be good for everyone but it wouldn't be out of love and free will, it will be cause you have no other choice. Free will goes for every decision you make even the good ones.

Free will causing war murder... why world cannot be without suffering and evil?

[ChicoFromThe305]

That's how it was meant to be, read the Bible, the book of Genesis primarily, it speaks about how humanity as designed by God but it also speaks about how Satan ruined it

[Sazidhassan]

How Satan ruined it? it is god who decided that he will give free will

[ChicoFromThe305]

With temptation, read the Bible bro, it's free, just like your will 😂

[strateguy632]

God allows people to choose. Then people hurt each other. Later on day of judgement they will get judged for sins. Only god (jesus spirit is same one) judges sins and should judge sins. Human judge should only judge for interpersonal crimes.

[Hellraiser1984]

Because of his allowance of Satan to tempt man and cause destruction. We are pawns in their twisted little game. We don't mean anything to either of them.

[Sazidhassan]

I didn't do anything still have to suffer

[jshm2]

Because dumbasses like you don't learn the first time round, and quickly enough.

[Jersey2]

Because we are no longer in the Garden Of Eden. We have to learn the hard way.

[Sazidhassan]

How it is our fault?

[andreasderjuengere]

There are people who don't pay their bills.

Nothing is for free.

God hasn’t been proven or disproven to exist by science. Religion is based on faith.

[Sazidhassan]

That's conclusion also I have come too

[Dargil]

Because G0d gives us free will,

[Simslover92]

Humanity's choices.

[Sazidhassan]

Why god allow even suffering?

[duntoldya]

God isn't a good luck charm

[Anonymous]

God doesn't exist

[Sazidhassan]

Is there any afterlife than?
