@m0rningw00d2 And since wrongdoing itself is only wrong because of the harm it does, while much suffering is the result of random chance or natural forces, there clearly is more suffering inflicted than wrongful action to be atoned for, so Humanity should have a huge credit built up. Time for a vacation from suffering. In other words, your appraisal is hooey.
@m0rningw00d2 And therefore, perhaps the wrongdoings of man are to pay for the suffering inflicted by God? Makes as much sense. More, because making the innocent suffer is transferring the debt and thereby rewarding the wrongdoer be letting him off Scott free. And what if the means of inflicting the suffering is dependent upon a wrongful action by another? In that case, the wrongdoer is the hand of god. Now does someone else have to suffer to make up for that wrongful action?
@haloroxbigtime And this notion is relevant to the question how?

@paisleyyama Apparently Dallas thinks so. But this is a hypothetical, so cram it.
