Well said.

Life is suffering. There is value and good in suffering. If people like Buffett understood this they wouldn’t be choosing to kill people over permitting them to overcome suffering.

It’s also the same rationale that is used to toss out the lives of disabled people like me. Not like we could actually amount to anything, eh?

Suffering often occurs when good and evil approach in opposition. I don’t agree with people who believe that suffering should be sought out on principle, because it seems to need no help to occur — but if humanity shied away from all suffering, it would be shying away from many occasions where good can otherwise press through evil.
