I voted up your post even in its earlier revisions.

However, Wei Da's is far more novel and entertaining. I would have voted it up 3 times if I could :)

These are all questions I (and most thinking people, have considered before): "Would it be better not to exist at all, if existence is mostly suffering?" ("To be, or not to be?"). "If a deist-type god (not intervening after creation) created this universe and all its rules that imply the suffering we observe, was that a moral act?" "How much pleasure (and for how long) does it take to make it worth some amount of suffering?"

If there was much beyond that in your post, I may have missed it.
