Description
The focus of this article is to discuss the discourse on the goodness of God in the reality of human suffering. This discourse aims to examine cases of human trafficking in NTT critically. I analyzed this case with a comparative study methodology. This paper is made in four stages of discussion. In the first part, I discuss human trafficking cases in NTT. In the second part, we examine Albert Camus' thoughts about the absurdity of human life. The fourth part is the relevance of the thoughts of these two philosophers in reflecting the goodness of God in the suffering of victims of human trafficking in NTT. The stages of this discussion led me to a new finding that human suffering, such as victims of human trafficking, does not negate the goodness of God in the world, as happened in Camus' reflection.
