Big idea

Suffering raises both intellectual and personal questions that cannot be answered by a single formula.

Guardrails

Distinguish the logical problem of evil from the emotional experience of suffering; arguments do not replace lament or care. | Never imply a sufferer's pain is evidence of hidden personal sin; include referral/safeguarding pathways for serious distress.
