Made for order

Law Prof William Stuntz has cancer. Yet he has maintained his perspective.

This world is messed up, but that's not how it started. We crave order because we were made to live in an ordered world. Then we disordered things by rebelling against the Creator. And the Creator bore our suffering anyway, and invites us to carry His yoke, which is light and easy. That's how a Christian explains suffering.

How do non-Christians explain it? I cannot tell.
