I don't believe that statement is true. It's a noble statement but it misses the point in life. The point in life is not to avoid suffering and discover but to live and procreate. If you're not sure whether this is true do a split test on two families and measure which sets of characteristics do best in 100 generations. Science and medicine may be what separate us from the animals but for most people they are enablers for the rest of life, not the point in life itself. Working in entertainment and anything that furthers our ability to enjoy and "live" life is just as valid as your first two. It may not sound as good in a manifesto but making people happy is an extremely worthy pursuit.
