Odd that suffering should be equated with evil. It seems an almost universal aspect of so many secular philosophies to elevate reduction of suffering over achievement or joy. Then again, maybe this is just a left leaning political view, which just happens to be associated with atheism in our day.
- I_Am_Nous 3y agoModern society doesn't really have room for a definite description of "evil" but suffering is visible and experienced by all. Reduction of suffering is considered good because suffering is considered evil, even if there isn't any spiritual or philosophical thought given to it these days.
