I don't expect others to get this(because from a worldly standpoint suffering seems pointless (and naturally it sucks to suffer))... but in the Catholic faith, suffering does have a purpose. ..but to be clear... Catholics don't want people to suffer and should help alleviate their suffering It seems to me that if God gave suffering a purpose, then working to alleviate God's purpose is an inherent contradiction. I don't know the Catholic meaning, but suffering is inevitable if by no other reason than death, but it's always awesome if you can avoid it. Suffering or not should not have an impact on faith since Christians can bear anything....including terminal illnesses. People have been doing it for centuries. |
