It can't, that's precisely the point, in order for anything to benefit 
it first must be alive, as you say, which proves that coming to life 
itself cannot be a benefit.

Of course we have gone over this ground a couple of times before, you 
never could get it before I don't expect you will this time.

You're not pointing a fact when you say "life is the benefit that makes 
all others possible", you're making a rhetorical statement which as I 
just showed is strictly speaking, not possible. What you are doing, in 
effect is saying that if you were not alive you could not enjoy ice 
cream, which is true, but which does not really mean anything.
