They believe people in society that accept suffering are there so that a different group can take the spiritual money from their suffering. It is a money concept in the supernatural, and matches a few other doctrines, like many people on a team, where some pay for others to do well.

There is a group of people that actually think they have to get people to suffer, so those people will pay for them to live in luxury.

No joke, they really think people suffering are giving them their luxury. It is a terrible delusion, and built to break empathy and get people to hurt people.

It is the opposite of justice, where instead of people receiving and giving based on their abilities and choices, they take anything they can and claim entitlement based on other peoples giving. It is a direct attack on concepts of peace and justice.


It is in a few groups and society.

However it completely ignores where Job ends up in that story. It ignores that part by saying their is no after life, a requirement of that doctrine. And why I felt it important to prove the supernatural exists, because once you know that, you can not say there is no afterlife with certainty. Since if there is a supernatural then the idea that resurrection exist becomes really easy to understand.

So I think it is best to know there is an afterlife, but not know if it is good or bad, so people don't do for those reasons, but also so people don't not do for thinking it does not exist.

maybe I am wrong, :shrug:
