Patur Aval Assur,
I don’t see how you are answering the question. Do you think that it makes sense to do something for absolutely no benefit whatsoever?
I’ll restate my position as clearly as possible.
1. Every action possible in the universe falls into one of two categories: benefit or harm.
2. This is true whether or not we humans understand the benefit or harm of the action.
3. We were created to know that we are responsible for acting beneficially, not harmfully. This is completely independent of whether we know what benefit or harm there is in an act.
4. Your question restated in this framework is then: why should we refrain from overriding 3? That itself is an action. Therefore, the burden of proof is now on you. Why would you purposefully override your created state?
If yes, then why?
Why not?
