Step 2 of “Carefully Evaluate Explanations” focuses on ‘justice’ as the reason terrible events occur in one’s life (see
Job 4:6-7; 6:2-3, 24). Instead, consider giving a mini lecture based on
how suffering is explained and asking into which category does ‘justice’ fall. Ask members to think of a
cliche responses that correspond to 'justice' done ("he/she got what he deserved").
Ask members for example situations of where they would attribute ‘justice’ (retribution) as the cause of bad things happening. Here are some examples from the news:
