Scenario

When friends have fundamentally different beliefs about suffering's purpose

My best friend believes her cancer scare was 'meant to teach her something' and I believe random terrible things just happen, and now when we try to support each other through hard times we keep accidentally invalidating each other's entire worldview.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

Opposing views about whether grief carries meaning are undermining the friendship that should provide comfort.
