Better he died because of cold randomness than some design that no one but one asshole can understand. I don't care if someone else knows why I'm suffering or being tested. I want to know why. The answer, itself, is what matters, not that there just is one. What's the point of having the answer there if you can't know it? It's as good as not having an answer.
And some all-powerful super being. If I can't figure out a way to explain something complex in a way that's generally understandable to the average person, then that's my failing as a teacher and a doctor. And maybe I can't explain something ultra complex in one sitting, but that doesn't mean it's incomprehensible. It just means you have to break it down.
Telling someone 'You won't understand,' is cheap. It means 'I don't have the time or inclination to break it down for you.'
