To me, it seems like a straightforward proposition..and I actually don't need soul forges or gods to explore it. Would you expect to become a better person or learn something from my beating the living shit out of you? Would my starving you or killing your child improve you? How about your child?

Your exploration of the topic would start with;
Right here and now, things happen that do not lead to spiritual growth. This demonstrates No. 4 is false.
