I don&rsquo;t know what&rsquo;s worse, that, or just thinking your shirt don&rsquo;t stink because you got dunked twice</p>

<p>that kind of story seems rather common &ndash; just like there are a lot of stories about a flood spread across the world</p>

<p>Just finished the Job ep and I am having a lot of feelings. Generally I am with Chris - as an atheist, I&rsquo;d rather believe in a random universe than a God capable of this much deliberate cruelty</p>

<p>Now, if God is cruel because gods are just capricious and ineffable, then I&rsquo;m actually less mad about it? If gods were an explanation for the random forces of nature, or capricious and human like the Greek gods who mess with humans just for lols, then you can&rsquo;t expect justice or fairness from them. I think the problem of Job is that we have this tradition of God as always just and loving, and putting that next to a very old story of &ldquo;sometimes life sucks and then you die&rdquo; just. There is a lot of cognitive dissonance there and it&rsquo;s very unsatisfying.</p>

<p>Yeah, that&rsquo;s how I feel about it</p>

<p>Being told &ldquo;god loves you personally and wants the best for you&rdquo; just feels gaslighty</p>
<p>Gods as uncaring cosmic forces, see &ldquo;the sun&rdquo; above</p>
<p>Getting angry at the sun for creating a desert is insane, and besides that silly

<p>Yeah, you can&rsquo;t get mad at a hurricane for wrecking your house</p>

When I read Job, I pictured his friends sitting down in the ashes with him, which made them seem a little more empathetic. This depiction seems more true though.</p>
