Riiiight, unlike the atheistic societies that have only managed to kill untold millions in an effort to advance their idologyand theology of materialistic humanism. Pain and suffering is not a product of Christianity, it is a product of rejecting Christianity, ask a North Korean. I know what you think, however, the article does not say Christianity is the cause of suffering, but that psychology that accepts suffering (and "sacrifice of the good") as a virtue, such as that which dominates North Korea and all other totalitarian regimes.

Suffering is a direct result of materialism and suffering is a direct result of doubt and suffering is a direct result of sin etc... Hank you know that Christians don't worship suffering, we worship God. Suffering isn't a virtue, it is the act of bearing suffering patiently that is a virtue. Suffering is because we are, it is evidence of material life and nothing more.
