Why the Problem of Pain Is a Problem


We all want to know why we have problems in our world. We all want the world to not cause us hurt. We are reminded of people who have died. This fills us with endless horror and pain. We could just try to live with our pain, but that is not how we can  live. We humans feel that we have to cut ✂ our life down to small bits. When we cannot do this, we feel that we have to blame someone. We feel that God has let us down. God is always blamed here. Yet this also brings pain. God is good. Satan is bad. Everything ok comes from God. God can't do wrong. Yet we have horror with out end. To say that God is not involved is not possible, since God is everything. To say that God is not good I not possible, because God defines good. If God does not allow things, then they do not happen. It is to say that He is not powerful. Or that He is not good. Perhaps we could say that the problem is not with God, but with the fact that He doesn't follow Greek logic. Think on that.

The other problem is that we think that we can prescribe our way to others, that we can superimpose our hurt on others. We must call people who do such evil! Hurting people do not want answers. They want to cry, to just scream in pain. Let them do that. Do not try to give them answers.

Is Western logic useless in real life?

Western logic is the operating mode of the Western World 🌎 and has always been the go-to source of analyzing the info in our lives, as we do math and science with it. It has three rules of operation: everything must be what it is, nothing can be what it is not, and there is no middle term, but with regard to time. This appears to be a great way to do scientific things, but just try to apply it to real life, and there are suddenly problems. This line of thinking about the world 🌎 implies that everything and everyone can be put into nice neat boxes, which most people will be offended at. Western logic also tells you that you should fight battles against enemies in order to gain glory. It says that nobody has any control over their fortunes. It says that the people that we see 👀 in our lives today are in a way 👻 ghost memories. We are reminded of people that we knew in the past. A good 👍 example of this is the idea 💡 that one's daughters are a lot like one's sisters. This is a totally weird idea 💡. Also is the idea 💡 that things should be categorized by their definition, which is their class plus differentia. Who says that this is really what things are like? Nobody really. Nature. This idea might work in math to have such an arbitrary source of truth, but in a court, just try to say that you follow Reason, and let's just try to see how far you get with it. But Greeks do not have any problems with this. Why?

Genesis 1

א  בְּרֵאשִׁית, בָּרָא אֱלֹהִים, אֵת הַשָּׁמַיִם, וְאֵת הָאָרֶץ.
A man, a god, a god, a heavenly man, and a hart.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rj7g8NCYEPM
In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth. Now the earth was formless and empty, darkness was over the surface of the deep, and the Spirit of God was hovering over the waters.
And God said, “Let there be light,” and there was light. God saw that the light was good, and he separated the light from the darkness. God called the light “day,” and the darkness he called “night.” And there was evening, and there was morning—the first day.
And God said, “Let there be a vault between the waters to separate water from water.” So God made the vault and separated the water under the vault from the water above it. And it was so. God called the vault “sky.” And there was evening, and there was morning—the second day.
And God said, “Let the water under the sky be gathered to one place, and let dry ground appear.” And it was so. 10 God called the dry ground “land,” and the gathered waters he called “seas.” And God saw that it was good.
11 Then God said, “Let the land produce vegetation: seed-bearing plants and trees on the land that bear fruit with seed in it, according to their various kinds.” And it was so. 12 The land produced vegetation: plants bearing seed according to their kinds and trees bearing fruit with seed in it according to their kinds. And God saw that it was good. 13 And there was evening, and there was morning—the third day.
14 And God said, “Let there be lights in the vault of the sky to separate the day from the night, and let them serve as signs to mark sacred times, and days and years, 15 and let them be lights in the vault of the sky to give light on the earth.” And it was so. 16 God made two great lights—the greater light to govern the day and the lesser light to govern the night. He also made the stars. 17 God set them in the vault of the sky to give light on the earth, 18 to govern the day and the night, and to separate light from darkness. And God saw that it was good. 19 And there was evening, and there was morning—the fourth day.
20 And God said, “Let the water teem with living creatures, and let birds fly above the earth across the vault of the sky.” 21 So God created the great creatures of the sea and every living thing with which the water teems and that moves about in it, according to their kinds, and every winged bird according to its kind. And God saw that it was good. 22 God blessed them and said, “Be fruitful and increase in number and fill the water in the seas, and let the birds increase on the earth.” 23 And there was evening, and there was morning—the fifth day.
24 And God said, “Let the land produce living creatures according to their kinds: the livestock, the creatures that move along the ground, and the wild animals, each according to its kind.” And it was so. 25 God made the wild animals according to their kinds, the livestock according to their kinds, and all the creatures that move along the ground according to their kinds. And God saw that it was good.
26 Then God said, “Let us make mankind in our image, in our likeness, so that they may rule over the fish in the sea and the birds in the sky, over the livestock and all the wild animals,[a] and over all the creatures that move along the ground.”
27 So God created mankind in his own image,
    in the image of God he created them;
    male and female he created them.
28 God blessed them and said to them, “Be fruitful and increase in number; fill the earth and subdue it. Rule over the fish in the sea and the birds in the sky and over every living creature that moves on the ground.
29 Then God said, “I give you every seed-bearing plant on the face of the whole earth and every tree that has fruit with seed in it. They will be yours for food. 30 And to all the beasts of the earth and all the birds in the sky and all the creatures that move along the ground—everything that has the breath of life in it—I give every green plant for food.” And it was so.
31 God saw all that he had made, and it was very good. And there was evening, and there was morning—the sixth day.
