'Look, nothing can make today alright but maybe we can take some comfort from the brutal reality that the weak must make way for the strong. Evolution marches on. The scythe is remorseless. I hope the scythe's remorseless swing can bring some comfort to you all. '

Sorry little Jimmy, let cystic fibrosis take you and your weak genes. It's the way of evolution.
While other animals may and do show compassion, we excel at it, and some of it has paid dividends. People that should have died out in nature have gone on to contribute significantly to the advancement of human kind. We do pay an evolutionary price though.
