   The notion that some sort of god never gives anyone more than they can handle is clearly false and undermines empathy for people who are suffering.

     That is the dumbest, most idealistic nonsense I've ever read. No, suffering is not a manifestation derived from perspective. Suffering is real, whether it's physical, mental, or emotional. Suffering is as real of a phenomenon as any other scientifically detectable phenomenon. Suffering is a product of material reality. It's not something that can just be thought away with "good vibes" or whatever nonsense you're spouting.

     @vjack Suffering comes from a desire, thinking there is something missing or lacking. Maybe it's only a matter of perspective and there really isn't suffering...because it's actually not incomplete, but instead not seen clearly
