Obviously Goo he feels it's better that they do experience
those lives than that they don't, even if your supposed
"state" of pre-existence might have some positive value,
somehow, as you certainly appear to be convinced that
it does. He probably feels that way even stronger if your
supposed "state" of pre-existence doesn't have any value,
Goo.

a life of positive value is never better than not having the
