But, I certainly apologize for the offensive way I tried to make a point. The point I was trying to make is that if everything is random, and life has no purpose beyond the purpose we assign to it, what is the suffering for? You live, you die, no more suffering. You're not aware of having ever suffered because you don't exist anymore. I may decide to alleviate someone's suffering and pat myself on the back for it, but in the end I have accomplished nothing. Hitler killed 20 million people and then put a bullet in his head. Absolutely no consequences for the suffering he caused. I find that difficult to accept.

P.S. before every atheist here assumes that I am a Christian because I disagree with them or sometimes defend religion, I am not a Christian nor am I religious. I believe that God exists, I'd like to believe that there's a reason I exist, but I haven't gotten much farther than that.
