That really doesn’t follow. Suffering bringing wisdom does not equate to those who suffer most are the most wise.

I’m not really arguing against the point you’re trying to make. But your example is illogical.

You're right, now that I think about it.

If A then B doesn't mean if B then A.

Thanks for catching it!
