    Thank you for this deeply moving interview with Dr. Eleanor Stump. I’ll need to listen several times to truly absorb all its profound insights. Three thoughts….
    1. What an Amazing Body God Created for Us.
    The complexity of our brains, as shown through experiments connecting Tom and Jane’s brain waves across different locations, reveals the fascinating, individualized nature of brain activity and inner brain synchrony. Their brain waves converge as they share a story, suggesting a deep, almost mysterious connection between human minds.
    2. I Wonder What the Martians Would Think of Me Wandering the Earth.
    Imagining how a Martian would view human life in a hospital highlights the paradox of suffering and healing. Without understanding context, the Martian might see only pain and horror, yet it takes empathy and insight to recognize the love and care driving medical efforts.
    3. I Wonder If I Could Ever Show the Devotion to Christ that Mary Magdalene Did.
    The story of Mary Magdalene's encounter with Christ reveals the depth of her trust and devotion. She accepts her suffering without needing explanations. Her silent understanding and willingness to endure for Christ’s sake have made her a unique figure in the Christian tradition, embodying faith’s power to transcend logic and expectation.

    That tension between “wanting to be known and not lonely versus not wanting to reveal what I am on the inside because I believe it to be repugnant” is somewhat mitigated by remembering:
    “If we weren’t cracked and broken, how would our inner light ever shine through?”
    2 Cor 4:7 But we have this treasure in jars of clay to show that this all-surpassing power is from God and not from us.
    So, rejoice in your brokenness! That’s how all of this is meant to work.

    God Gave us commandments and if we obey them we will not suffer. Any suffering is due to our disobedience or others disobedience. We are the ones making the choices. Bible people Blamed God too. 😊❤

      I loved a man..gave him my life and five children. Only to be disrespected in return. I didn’t realize how important It was that I needed love too. I am paralytic. I don’t Blame God. I made a very bad choice for myself.

      Yes! Probably due to someone else disobedience. My suffering was because of the disobedience of my Mormon husband. Two children dead and a sweet daughter in law dead because this devil. Innocent good people are the victims of evil. Maybe you need to look at your life a little more closely. I Avoid the devil Now!

      With love, this perspective undermines the story of Job and Joseph. I don’t want to downplay the goodness of obeying. But what you’ve written echoes Job’s friends who God called wrong.

    She asked what evil do we experience that doesn't have a human element, ie lung cancer. What comes to mind is the tsunami in Indonesia a few years back with thousands killed. I working to see the human element here but haven't found it yet.
