How do I overcome this confusion?
From Michael ~
Hello, If you guys don’t mind I’d like to request some advice. I’m on the fence about religion at the moment.
I used to be a Christian, as I was raised in a predominantly Christian household. My Mom and Grandma brought me to Mass every Sunday, and I spent my time in primary school in a Christian school. However, I’m starting to question things, and I’m confused because of it.

For example, I sometimes ask myself questions like,
"If there is a God, why has he allowed so many people to suffer over the thousands of years of our existence. If he loves us, why does he let us suffer?"
