Is Human Reproduction Un-Ethical?

[JuliaL]

Hear me out.

---

If no God or after-life exists;
There is no other point to being, than what we make of our lives here; 
And, if some children will find in this life great fulfillment, while others find incredible pain and suffering- which we cannot possibly foreknow; 

---

To wager that a child will enjoy life, to a degree greater than the sum of the pain and suffering;

---

Which is to wager with somebody elses life, potentially exposing another human being to immense grief and pain;
Which is needless, considering the fact that their is no reason for us to be, or to continue to exist;
And, that the, act of having children is not necessary for any purpose other than our own gratification; 
Thus, having children is a selfish, greedy act which can impose great pain on another human being;
Having children is thus un-ehtical and immoral.

What do you think? 

In previous generations,
those who acted on the chance that, on balance, the outcome would be suffering which
outweighed happiness to the point that it was not ethical to have and raise
a child are less (barring accident) represented in our population.
Those who took the converse position had us.
So, robvalue's brother notwithstanding, we're the offspring of the optimists or the less careful.
No doubt, that'll be the result going forward.
