    What if we give plants the ability to communicate with us?
    Poor asparagus, I would feel bad for it but it just tastes so darn good. :(

    Perhaps it would be better to increase the intelligence of us humans.

    But I think the real problem is that no one of humans really knows or understands the role of what we categorize as suffering in the experience of our existence.

    I avoid inflicting suffering when I can, but there may be another set of books in the universe that may show it to be something that redounds to our benefit.

    We may not have the whole picture.
