Suffering in the Human Relationship with God Suffering is part of human existence on earth. Christians are no exception to the rule. The problem is that most suffering is experienced by the innocent.

The roles that males and females may also vary -- although a woman biologically gives birth to a child, a man may assume more or less care for the child, depending upon the situation of a couple.

Descartes' argues that the body is external to the mind, and that non-human animals do not possess the pure, thinking mind of humans. Thus,
