This actually kind of is an important question.....?

Question

If everybody has problems, and somebody out there always has it worse than somebody else, then who has it the absolute worst in the world?

Answer 1

What is important is that we learn from our sufferings and use them to benefit ourselves and others whenever possible. With God's grace we can get through anything. Don't compare notes--focus on your relationship with God.

Answer 2

That is an interesting philosophical question. It would require virtually unlimited input of criteria because not all people consider the same things as horror. In other words, you might believe that a homeless person has it the worst yet another might think it's an intriguing vagabond lifestyle. Consequently, "worst" and "best" are both quantitative and subjective. It all depends on your personal point of view.

Answer 3

How bad someone has it is relative to the person. No one has it worse than everyone else and someone always has it worse. Let me show you an example with three people: Jack, Jane, Junior

Junior has it worse than Jane but better than Jack

Jane has it worse than Jack but better than Junior

Jack has it worse than Junior but better than Jane

You can't apply value to how bad each person has things. Who has it worse and who has it better is in each person's eyes. looking at the example, who has it worse and who has it better matches with each person having it worse and having it better than another. Many more webs of this exist between people in the world, and with all the combinations possible It's very easy to see that it's possible for someone to always have it worse and no one have the worst.

Answer 4

The one who is dealing with their problem at the time. Worse is always subjective. What I can handle may be more or less than what you could handle. My problems may be mountains to me but molehills to you and visa versa. The fact that I let God help me with my problems is a big factor too. Perhaps the person who has it worst is the one who is surrounded by what seems insurmountable problems and does not have God to turn to.

Answer 5

All problems are personal so anytime one or more occurs, it is immediate so seems - often - far worse than it really is. Especially in comparison to the problems of others. Otherwise, I would say the [worst] problems in the world deal with the everyday concerns of famine, war or disease.

Answer 6

Hard to say . . . Perhaps it is the one who has no hope? I've seen people in much worse circumstances than I have ever been in, and their hope and faith in God lifted them up, and they had peace and joy in spite of their circumstance. I think those who have nothing to believe in and are at the bottom of their barrel are the worst off in the world. We need to help anyone in bad circumstances, and make a difference for anyone we can. Doesn't matter who is the worst - off. Make a difference where you are.

Answer 7

"who has it the worst" is definately a matter of opinion. We all have our problems, and we go through life facing many obstacles. But our problems are our own, and while some people's problems may seem minor compared to others, we are all learning valuable lessons through them.

Answer 8

Orphaned starving and unwanted children who have no one to love and protect them.

There are hundreds of them on the other side of the world in destitute countries. They're not the same skin color as the vast majority of the world's rich, and their countries don't have any oil, so they remain for the most part invisible to most of us.

Answer 9

Grace unto you, and peace,
from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.

Thank God there's no mention of "worst" in the NT of the Holy Bible containing Old and New Tesaments; Rather only mention of "worst" in the OT, and only once, notably in Ezekiel 7:24.

The NT, being called a "better testament" with a "better hope" of all living (by none perishing, by being saved only by grace only); The NT has only mention of a "worse"-end mentioned in Matthew 12:45's "seven other spirits more wicked" returning and portrayed in Revelation's "seven spirits" being a "worse" case scenario to a-void by sin(law) no more; Especially since worst of worst<-worse<-bad would be a "draw back" to "perdition", or a "sin(law) unto death", or to the extinction of all(all die; all perish; all dead) rather than a going on unto the salvation of all via Christ: the Saviour of the world and that God our Saviour who was in Christ reconciling the world unto himself: the God of all grace.

Let them, who would be (willingly) ignorant, be ignorant; Let them all have "their end" shall be according to "their works": grace(truth) + law(lie) is as life + death(does NOT end with life).

Let us, who would know the truth is no lie at all since that God is light having no darkness at all; Let us go on unto perfection:

The GRACE of our Lord Jesus Christ WITH YOU ALL. AMEN.

Answer 10

Problems are very relative and subjective, so I guess we really can't pin down who has the worst problem in the world.

Answer 11

subjective answer: you, you have the absolute worst, and u will u will realize that when u will face more problems. others problems will seam less important.

objective answer: it is called Ishmael, he lived all his life in Iraq, his parents died when he was young and he joined the terrorists. he was captured by the americans and tortured in the worst possible way, they removed his eyes, cut his fingers, etc etc. (actualy this was an hypotetic answer)
