Why_People_Suffer

Why People Suffer Why do People Suffer' Since 2700 B.C. to present day the question of why there is evil and why there is suffering has been in the head of every person. The time when Gilgamesh was written it was the belief that there were Gods and Goddesses for every part of the universe. In the epic of Gilgamesh the nature of the divine power is some what unclear. The Gods and Goddesses are depicted as having supper human powers, such as eternal life and the ability of cursing people and things. Much to the opposite of Gilgamesh, the scriptures of Genesis and Job the divine power, God, is a being that forgives the sins of the people, but does not over look the large sins and does take action in the form of curses. However, after creating the earth God saw that people were sinning and breaking commandments, so he punished his people with the great flood. With God being a forgiving being he told Noah through a dream that he should build an arc and bring two of every living thing, one male and one female. This great flood wiped out all that was evil and all that was bad.
