    As a religiously questioning person, of no particular persuasion, though perhaps more pagan than not, the question came up among friends:

    What kind of God would allow so much suffering?

    Well, we debated this a good deal, and in the end, we all ended up laughing, despite our differences, when a fried posted this amazing clip.

    Thank you England, and the BBC!

    Oh, well, I can't get this to work, even following the directions :frowning2:

    I once heard suffering'evil was the absence of God in a persons heart. I kinda like it that way, it means to end all "evil" you should help others find the love of God. Whilst this is completely subjective (What is "evil") I still find it better than severely harming someone, or worse.
