The Crucifixion of the Cross Is a Symbol of Voluntary Suffering

Jacob: The reason that Cain gets so out of hand is because he's suffering and he won't accept it. If you can accept that voluntarily regardless of its intensity then you won't become embittered and resentful and vengeful to the point where you pose a danger to the stability of the community, or your own stability for that matter. So what that means instead is that even under those conditions of relatively intense suffering you have to accept it voluntarily as otherwise it turns you against being. Then you start to act in this terrible manner that makes everything worse right I mean even if it's no wonder that people do that but it's it's a degenerating game according to Jacob.
