Inhaltsangabe
The prophets: suffering is a punishment for sin.
The book of Job, which offers two different answers: suffering is a test, and you will be rewarded later for passing it; and suffering is beyond comprehension, since we are just human beings, and God, after all, is God.
Ecclesiastes: suffering is the nature of things, so just accept it.
All apocalyptic texts in both the Hebrew Bible and the New Testament: God will eventually make right all that is wrong with the world.
For renowned Bible scholar Bart Ehrman, the question of why there is so much suffering in the world is more than a haunting thought. Ehrman's inability to reconcile the claims of faith with the facts of real life led the former pastor of the Princeton Baptist Church to reject Christianity.
In God's Problem, Ehrman discusses his personal anguish upon discovering the Bible's contradictory explanations for suffering and invites all people of faith - or no faith - to confront their deepest questions about how God engages the world and each of us.

A remarkable work of honest theology.
Bart D. Ehrmann guides the reader in a tour of all kinds of different theological approaches to suffering that we can find in a thorough reading of the Bible.
Not only do we encounter conflicting explanations to the cause, the meaning and the solution to the problem of suffering all throughout the books of the Bible, but also highly problematic accounts of a wrathful, boasting "God" that adds to human (and animal) suffering in this world with narcissistic power games, with murderous terror and intrigue.
The author regards all sorts of different approaches to suffering and Theodicee with admirable clarity and honesty.
If there is anything in this world or beyond deserving to be referenced with the designation "God", then I'm sure that He/She/It would want us to rely on our "godgiven" faculties to test and to question what others (even those who claim to be apostles and prophets) write or say about "God" with our heart and mind.
Perhaps there is in essence an evolution of ethics and morals that we are observing in the history of this world and in the discourse about this world... and perhaps "God" is still waiting further down the line (still higher up where the wave of collective consciousness is breaking/ at "Point Omega"?)... And maybe we, as society, can still hope to arrive at a vantage point, where we'll be able to see more clearly and to gather the fruits of this ethical, psychological and spiritual development process that is essentially about co-creating a social reality, based on openness and solidarity, that will be more in accord with our fundamental longing for what is good and true and healthy in all kinds of aspects.
