Yes, my perception was that you were saying that suffering is necessary and unavoidable, and maybe even desirable. Again, I ask you, do you believe that suffering is NOT necessary, that it's avoidable, and it's not desirable? You could answer my questions; after all, I'm answering yours. And I sure don't deny suffering -- it's there alright! It's all over the place! I sure do accept that that is so.
Yes.
Do you answer mine?

My feeling of delight couldn't be further from the truth? But if I were terrified, I would be closer to the truth? Hey, wait a second, you said you would be more than happy to get an emotional response from me! I gave you a delighted response -- where's the more-than-happy?
I was hoping for a genuine response connected to the subject matter. What exactly is your delighted response to? I have not been addressing any delightful issues.
You seem to just choose a feeling out of thin air. Any feeling, appropriate or not.
