[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What explains the suffering of children to people who aren’t religious? Is it just random terrible things, and then the child suffers and dies and is snuffed out of existence?

To some, I think. A friend who was atheist was dying of a terrible illness and that is certainly how he viewed it. I lived, I suffer, I die, and am no more. I found it very sad that he viewed life as so pointless, but others found his point of view somehow comforting. [/quote]

Did he say life was pointless, or did you imagine it?
It's quite sad that you find life so pointless that you wish for something to exist outside of life to give it a point. [/quote]

What’s the point in the life of a baby with cancer? They suffer and die, what is the point to their lives? [/quote]

I’d like to know the answer to this too. Can someone explain how they view this secularly?[/quote]

I guess the non-religious people don’t have an answer. No one has said anything as an answer except tragedy. Of course it’s a tragedy. But what is the point of the baby being born, dying  of cancer, and then being non-existent? From the secular perspective. [/quote]

Why does there have to be a point? [/quote]
