You can't just claim that "Life is a gift" is a lie based on circumstantial things, Jay. Not everyone feels pain and depression upon coming to the conclusion that life is meaningless and not everyone comes to that conclusion. And you can't claim that any other conclusion is wrong, either. Also, you can't say that guilt for creating children is necessary because the children might hate it. That's like saying nothing should be done ever because there's a possibility for anything to go wrong. And how could you even decide to be born? Read above what I said about objectivity. Besides, if anyone stops wanting their own life they can always end it (note: not saying I believe anyone should commit suicide. Just that in certain circumstances it is a possibility).

You do have to remember that "Life is a gift" is something that varies from person to person. If it's a lie to you, it isn't necessarily for everyone else. If you ask me, I infinitely prefer feeling horrible over nothing at all.
