We are not in a position to give an opinion on leprosy, jungle fever, hoof-and-mouth disease or other minor ailments like that but, when it comes to the really "big sickness" - hangovers - we can speak with some authority.
How any piece of mechanism could take the rough treatment we gave our human bodies would make it appear, on the surface, that Nature intended to make us live to punish ourselves in a manner that Nature itself could not duplicate. Outraged Nature could only confine its retribution to the body. The mental and spiritual beating we took was administered by ourselves. That was the most cruel of all.
