“So when we call pain a problem, we claim we do not deserve it. We are even prepared to scuttle God to maintain our own innocence. We will say that God is not able to do what He would like, or He would never permit persons such as ourselves to suffer. That puffs up our egos and soothes our griefs at the same time.

Drastic medicine, indeed, that only a human ego, run wild, could possibly imagine.” HumansPersonsProblemRunningAblePainSufferingGriefImagineEgoDeserveClaimsMedicinePreparedInnocenceRighteousnessPermitDeitiesAdmissionSelf RighteousSelf RighteousnessPuffDrastic Author:John Gerstner
