Did Jesus Really Suffer?

So, my question is this: How do you reconcile your belief in Jesus's sacrifice with today's greater suffering; and how does his death for your crimes make any sense?

I understand the questions you're asking concerning Christian dogma, but I don't see that your OP explains the point in the comparison. IOW, why does belief in Jesus's sacrifice need to be reconciled or compared with anyone else's suffering to have meaning to Christians?I think there needs to be something in the OP that explains/supports what one has to do with the other.Respond to this post after you edit the OP or if you have questions.Thanks

Much as I like the plain text, as the OP is written this discussion isn't about reconciling dogma with the plain text of the Bible.Please try to keep within the spirit of the OP.Thanks
