So regardless Inez will torture Estelle in any shape way or form. It may seem like Inez is being all buddy buddy to Estelle but in all reality she is fated to be her torturer. The way Inez acts towards Estelle is a way of disgusting her. The things that are said towards Estelle may disgust her because she doesn't see Inez the way Inez sees Estelle. The way Inez speaks to her is somewhat inappropriate in a way. So there for disgust can be caused by what Inez’s actions do and by what she is saying to that particular person. In conclusion, some people don’t know that other human beings can cause anguish by the things they can possibly do to one another, nor do they know they can cause burdens, they also aren't fully aware the disgust they can cause. Hell can be considered as other people because human beings can cause anguish to one another's, burdens to themselves, and disgust others. So what if people didn’t cause anguish burdens or disgust? Some feel that the way people acts towards a situation is how they are going to act regardless. People’s actions depict their true feelings towards someone or a something.

In Dante’s Inferno, the ideas of justice, good and evil, and suffering in hell are implied. The idea of suffering in hell and the idea of justice are closely related. Dante indicates that those suffering in hell have committed crimes that are being punished in a reasonable way and that we should not have pity for them. He uses the setting and his organization of hell to transmit these ideas and his philosophy regarding these ideas. The organization of hell helps us understand that Dante believed it was a person’s poor decisions and not cruel fate that got a person in hell.

They are pushed away to seek different, better things, separated from the causes of their grief. In these cases, it would be inaccurate to claim that cruelty is little more than unjust treatment. Cruelty is not a display of power—it is the abuse of it; the ugly offspring of fear and weakness, spurred by fits of anger and doubt; a revealer of the truly weak and liberator of the wrongly

Everyone has experienced pain, but we all deal with it differently. Some people try to avoid experiencing pain, for they are scared; while others accept their punishment and agony. Moral people tolerate their pain and trauma by making their traumatic experience meaningful and important. They learn from their punishment and try to provide insight. In the stories of Antigone and Boycott, Letter From Birmingham Jail, righteous people fought for their beliefs without violence and dealt with their suffering without hesitation.

Throughout humanity, the idea of suffering played a major role in human lives, in some cases by ending it. Nevertheless, according to popular religious traditions, the first humans, Adam and Eve, were placed on Earth to suffer for their sins in a life of misery. All humans are a part of this “original sin,” thus there is no such thing as innocent humans suffering in the world. “All have sinned and come short of the glory of God” (Romans 3:23). Popular religious themes are centered on the idea of continual suffering in life, like the Israelites who continued to suffer through the Holocaust.

John is isolated from society because he does not want to be emotionless. His uniqueness from the people around him allows him to notice in them how unrewarding false happiness actually is. John states, in reference to a Shakespeare play, “haven't [the gods] used [Edmund’s] pleasant vices as an instrument to degrade him?” (Huxley 236). John’s point is that false happiness and emotionlessness are degrading and dehumanizing.

It is a convenient and comforting respond to unfortunate and even devastating ‘fate’. The pain becomes bearable to those who suffer because it is all part of a bigger plan, it is more than ‘you’. This concept is also built upon an irrational fundamental attitude, “the surrender of self to the ordering power of society.” (54) The problem of theodicy does not end at that.

I could never say that “Hell is other people.” , like Sartre. I feel like it is essential for everybody to have people in their life they depend on and care immensely about. Humans are social creatures and have a natural urge to communicate with other humans. We all like to share humorous moments, bewildering stories, and our life troubles with each other.

Although it may be acceptable that there are pleasures more valuable than others for an individual or even a group, it is unplausible to claim that there are pleasures equally valuable for everybody. I will try to show this by analyzing concepts of desires and fears in Epicurus’ theory. Epicurus’ idea is that fear or desire can be suppressed solely by realization that they have irrational basis. Unfortunately mechanisms of human psychology are far more complex than that. It is not hard to imagine people who would be absolutely terrified after realization that death is the end and that there is no god to save them and what makes this realization appalling is not only irrationality, but certain Weltanschauung or mindset as well.
