    Good things done for bad reasons are still good. Would you rather have a reaper who protects life so as to har est more souls or life who cleanses all so as to raise the value of what survives?

      What? That doesn’t even make sense. Death is a natural part of the life cycle, just as “night” is a natural part of the day cycle, whether in the Arctic regions or the roughly 24 hour regions.

      No one said good things can’t come from ill intentions, one might pause and ask, “if I hadn’t settled for a hot dog for a hundred years, growing an intestinal tumor for my troubles so that now I can’t eat and pay rent, might I be enjoying decent housing, food, clean water and adequate medical care as a human right?”
