“God Needs Us to Suffer to Grow” - Xtian Caller Runs in Circles | Alyssa Ljub & Skeptical Heretic

This call is a clip from an episode of Chewed Gum, a live call-in show that I co-host every Tuesday night at 7pm EST on ‪@qnaline‬ In this episode, I talk with John, a Christian caller who believes human suffering — including cancer, natural disasters, and even animal pain — is necessary for humanity to “evolve.” We get into the problem of evil, free will, randomness, intelligent design, and whether an all-powerful God could create growth without extreme suffering. I push back on the idea that pain is a teaching tool, question why innocent beings suffer without purpose, and explain why — if God exists — he would still need to prove that he’s good. This was a long, thoughtful conversation that perfectly shows why “God works in mysterious ways” stops being satisfying when real suffering is on the table.
