in discussing this with someone who posits the opinion “the good doesn’t outwigh the bad” as a fact.
For me, in my life, I have the oppposing opinion.
In the past couple of weeks I’ve been dealing with severe allergies, and I got hit by a car that ran a red light (I was crossing with a “walk” sign) and am now suffering from serious back pain. It hurts to move. 
I’m not trying to say that there aren’t people in the world who have suffered much, much, much more than I have. There are. That’s exactly my point! But you know who does not have to suffer? The lucky majority who are never created in the first place.
This is exactly how I feel, EVERYNAMEISTAKEN. I’m sorry about your injury and I hope you recover soon.
“The Lucky Majority” is, besides a kick-ass name for a band, non-existent. There’s no majority over anything because zero is a pretty serious minority. And being that there are none of them, I don’t see how you can attribute luck to them … which is to say none of them.
So because bad things can happen to your kids if you have them, it is better if you don’t have kids at all?
Well bad things can happen to you if you get out of bed in the morning so maybe none of us should get out of bed in the morning.
Perhaps the world is better off without YOUR children but I’m gonna teach my kids to make the world a better place to balance the family karma for their uncle the Republican.
Thanks Isabel! I have an appointment with a chiropractor tomorrow who I’m hoping will be able to help.
