Re: suffering in the bible?
genesis proposes the origin of suffering to be exile from paradise, specifically mentioning female suffering the form of childbirth, and male suffering in the form of manual labor. somewhat metaphorically speaking, regarding genesis 3, suffering is the natural result of consciousness.
a more appropriate answer to this question can be had about 14 months from now, if there is a "job" thread.
