Pat chats with Professor Emeritus Ephraim Radner on his First Things article, Why Me?, exploring how the modern "why me" response to suffering reflects a shift toward radical individualism. Radner argues that for most of human history, suffering was understood as a shared experience connected to family, community, and God rather than a solitary burden. By examining the Book of Job and the legal framework of assisted suicide, he illustrates how finding meaning in our trials can become a profound gift to others.
