This is one of the questions that an atheist will ask. Why did God create a universe where there is so much suffering?
Why there are so much sufferings in this world if god created this universe?
Well first of all, the sufferings are not god created. These are created by humans by their own karma. Now the next question is
What was the reason/requirement to create this universe?
The soul is eternal. It can be proved in the same way that the elementary particles of matter have always existed. They are never created but are always present. That means the soul has been born eternal times. Which means that we have an account of both good and bad karma of all previous lives. Now to punish and reward these karma god has created the universe other how can God be ever just.
What if I don't believe in previous birth?
Let's say you don't believe in previous birth. But then how will you explain: why one person is born into a very rich family and the other one is born into a very poor family. How will you explain this discrimination. This can be explained only through karma. But a newborn baby has not done any karma yet. But still one is getting rewarded while the other one is not. This can only be explained if we believe in karma of previous birth. Which is only possible if we had any previous birth.

What if I don't believe in karma?
Then you can never have a goal in your life. Because if you have a goal then you must also be trying to achieve it by making different kinds of efforts. But what if I tell you that you will never achieve your goal no matter what you do. Now there will be two options for you
- Either you can accept that I am saying the truth
- Or you can try to prove him wrong. If you choose to prove him wrong then how you will do that. Well that is only possible through karma. Because deep down you know that you can achieve anything through hard work(or karma).
