4thtime... why is it so hard to accept that there might be no god at all, and that everything happens by chance? Is that so incredibly scary?
I'd also advice you to stop looking at the evening news if you don't want to see bad news (=suffering). That's all they show.
In the case of the child being abused, the news media do not tell you that the vast majority of children are *not* abused, and that a lot of the abused kids end up more or less alright (I hope). In the case of the senior citizen killed in congo, the media do not tell you about the millions/billions of humans *not* beaten to death. Everything is relative, and relatively speaking, these are still exceptions, not the rule.
...but perhaps I'm being overly optimistic. I have a tendency to enjoy the simple things in live, and to laugh at anything bad nature could possibly throw at me: is that all???
