Ah, the protocols of the elders of science...

Now, that is nasty. One might define "brief life of grievous suffering" to apply to anyone ever born.

I believe the correct quote would have been "...the life of man, solitary, poor, nasty, brutish, and short." From Hobbes' Leviathan. I guess if you subscribe to that outlook, the culture of death would make sense.
