The Meanings of Suffering
Hastings Center Report 28 (5):13-19 (1998)
Abstract
Western thinkers have usually falsified our experience of suffering in trying to make sense of it. In a postmodern age, their accounts seem implausible. We need a way of making sense of suffering while admitting its horror.My notes
