You could end the whole thing in a painless moment and all suffering would be gone in an instant. Everyone is going to die anyway this would be painless for all.I also look at the world and see that people continue to experience joy from being around friends and family, falling in love, and doing things they enjoy. Natural wonders continue to occur. Nations and groups still get over their differences and find peace. The poor work hard and get more prosperous, some even becoming the very rich. Nutcases are helped by society and treated for their illnesses.
Why would I want to end such a wonderful thing, and more importantly, what even gives me the right to?
So are you saying life is about so much more than suffering, there is so much joy also. ps the only right you have is that you have the power to do as you want the button is there. The only restriction being your judgement.
