No pain no gain. Watkins sounds like an anti-masochist? Pleasure/pain as "brute facts"? What of self-sacrificing altruists? Moses gave up his position as prince in Egypt for the suffering masses, Buddha forsook being a prince for the suffering of Untouchables, Jesus temporarily left his position with the Father to suffer & sacrifice himself for our sins.
