I'm gonna argue No. It is a great force for the celebration of life and creativity and beauty. Especially at this time.
And I will bring forward many witnesses for the defence - including the likes of Beethoven, Mozart, Botticelli and Leonardo.
How about it?
The Metaphysical poets for starters.
In give you John Donne.
"Any man's death diminishes me, because I am involved in Mankind; And therefore never send to know for whom the bell tolls; it tolls for thee. "
Can't get much better than that.
