Man may not be able to prevent suffering, but if those who are able do not take upon themselves to protect, shelter, and comfort those who are suffering from further exploitation and violence, they fail both Krishna and Jesus Christ.
In many of Ovid's stories of transformation in the Metamorphoses, those who transform do so for protection. Is it a hopeless dream to believe that man can invent tools and even "authorities" (organizations of people) which protect people from exploitation and suffering? Is it wrong to believe that man can transform nothing into something which protects those who are less fortunate? To deny that possibility is, to me, an intolerable regression of the definition of the potential of the human spirit.

This is why we are here to serve and by service we find happiness. Service under the duress of regulation and or censorship is just the monopoly of violence. The power hungry will use any sweat language to sway the ignorant who are rules by external senses. But we must have a clear language to delegate, delineate, manufacture, manage, and help. Finally the free market makes us wealthy by providing the opportunities and means to help others.
If we circle back to helpless men, women or babies we can determine with clarity that more men and women and babies are harmed in our age of quarrel now!
If I see trash I pick it up. I don't wait for someone else to do it and complain about it.
I think we've gone so far of the peg here. I wish you free speech and peace!
