> 4) pain happens whether we believe in God or not. and some people's ways of making sense of pain is to say that phrase you mentioned. it doesn't mean it's accurate. but i do honor any relief it might give someone. when someone's in pain, i'd rather they find relief than point out a flaw in their thinking. relief is more important than being right. it's called grace... oh, well, that brings us around to the original discussion now doesn't it? :-)
