Edited citations from my C.S. Lewis section within my MPhil thesis. I stated:
Twitter version I
The atheist can argue that for rational beings suffering is a wrong, it causes pain which is not good for the mind & body. Without a perfectly good God as a model, it can be argued that for evolutionary reasons suffering is needed.
Twitter version II
With an evolutionary model, the weak must suffer and die in order for stronger beings to emerge, so thus what we see as a problem of evil could be a requirement of reality.
