Abraham Moses Genen asks
: Is feeling pain, and suffering and understanding the nature of pain
: and suffering, a meaningful prerequisite in trying to deal with and
: hopefully eliminating as many of the woes of humankind as possible????

I believe the tautology "nobody likes to be forced to do things
against their will" covers most cases.

(I know you don't agree.)
