Thanks for compiling these in a single post -- I've just linked to it.
Ta.
Jason has written an excellent post (with lots of great quotes) on suffering.
ABC: Shane Clifton reflects on evil and suffering.
"This is important to underscore because it reminds us that we shouldn't draw on evil to explain or justify anything, not even the problem of pain. The only appropriate response to evil is protest and condemnation, as well as determined efforts to work toward healing and restoration. When a horrible evil is cited as a reason for atheism, a theist should resist replying with any suggestion that God has his reasons for causing or allowing such an evil. This is not only logically absurd, but it diminishes the horror of evil, as if there could ever be justification for rape, murder, abuse and so on."
