I choose to avoid all suffering that does not enhance a life.
As do we all.

But it is 'YOU', adult human beings, who are THEE ONES who is causing and creating ALL of the SUFFERING in the world.
When will 'YOU' START SEEING this ACTUAL Truth, and IRREFUTABLE Fact?

But what's the point of saying so? We have already only two options: a universe that does not have any pain in it, and one that does have pain in it. Pain is often a product of bad choices; but pain is also an evidence of choice itself.
What would you rather have: a universe with no pain and no choices, or a universe with some pain but real choices? That's the real question.
'real' in relation to 'what', EXACTLY?

So who "owes" Whom what?
you ask. I have had a particularly easy life so far. Many others have had lives of unremitting and severe suffering. You would do better to ask those others who owes whom what.
No, I prefer to ask you. Because those individuals have their own roads to follow, and whether or not they have questions, they are surely questions that only they are qualified to ask.
You say your life has been "particularly easy." Perhaps, then, you should thank God, instead of looking for reasons to object to Him or complain about his dealings with others.
WHY are 'you', adult human beings, in the days when this is being written, STILL SO STUPID to ACTUALLY think or BELIEVE that God wants or even seeks "thanks".
Here is just MORE EXAMPLES of just how CLOSED and STUPID human beings REALLY WERE, back when they BELIEVED things, just because they had been TOLD things by "OTHER" human beings.
TELLING someone that, "They SHOULD thank God", as though God was some
person who had picked them out and had CHOSEN 'them' is about one of the MOST IDIOTIC and RIDICULOUS ideas that human beings could have and have bestowed upon and among themselves.

That might be the more grateful, appropriate response, would it not?
Here is ALSO a GREAT EXAMPLE of just HOW MUCH and HOW OFTEN these God-BELIEVING human beings would seemingly CONTINUALLY 'try to' get "others" to come and join their congregation to BELIEVE in the SAME God, in which they do.
These people REALLY felt SO INSECURE with their OWN BELIEFS that they were almost constantly 'trying to' gather and maintain as many "followers" as they could, just so they could feel better about their OBVIOUSLY Wrong and DISTORTED ASSUMPTIONS and BELIEFS. Just like ALL 'armies' feel stronger, more powerful, and more 'right', the MORE that are, literally, joined-together, in the SAME ideas and BELIEFS.
But how Wrong they ALL WERE. As just Truth, logic, AND reasoning ALWAYS squashes and quells them ALL DEAD.
And, as can be CLEARLY SEEN here, throughout this forum, "they are dropping like flies", as some say.
