John Bowker looks at the ways religious traditions have accepted suffering without compromise and used it to affirm the ultimate victory of life. Producer DAVID CRAIG BBC Manchester

Mary Goldring has been talking to some of them and questioning whether, far from curing unemployment, they are actually pushing us into a deeper recession.
