The Suffering Q

This man is a "pure mathematician," a professor of mathematics at Oxford University - and  he describes himself as a kind and friendly Irishman. 

Since childhood, he's been curious about how other people think. He welcomes dialog with people who think differently than he does. His Christian parents gave him The Communist Manifesto to read when he was 13 years old, and he doesn't shy away from hard questions.

At about 9 minutes in the video below, he says, "I believe in evidence-based faith . . and if my faith cannot meet objections, it's not worth believing in . . ."

Here he speaks to a group at Harvard Medical School in America on the topic, "Where is God in Suffering?"
