Okay. Badly worded. How about "Why do humans experience some things as
painful?". And to answer John, I would point to the passage in Job..... "were
you there when I created the leviathan",etc.
Ecclesiastes is not my favourite ancient text, or the most hopeful one, by
accident. It is the most comforting and optimistic tome in ancient texts.
And if it helps, watch "Cube".

Julie,
Is this a question about theodicy or biology? I really don't know what
the force of 'have to' is.
