I don’t know where to post this but this community seemed like the best. I am having a real challenge of faith lately. I don’t understand why god brings so much pain and torment to people. I have been tortured through a separation and losing access to my daughter. But, this is mainly for a friend who recently discovered a cancerous tumor in their young daughter. I can’t imagine the fear, pain and anxiety that they all are being put through. Good people doing the best they can and all around me it seems like there is just pain. Why would god do this? Why did we get the lucky draw to have a disease that can strip our life away.

"He" doesn't. Divinity either doesn't exist, doesn't interfere at all, or doesn't care about us.
You don't need to belive in divinity to be a good person. Drop the belief in the god you have been indoctrinated with, and get back to real spiritual connection with other people, tangible, real life people struggling just like you. All the terribleness in the world is just people being people. Embrace the suck but find the beauty where you can.

God made us human. Humans get sick. And God also lost his only son. We all go in the end my friend. It's hard to grasp. I too have had lose after lose.
