Claim that suffering brings one closer to God. Other people's suffering, of course.

I suspect whatever context one would put Miller's statement in would show the only argument it might apply to that isn't totally appalling is some torture scene in a Mel Gibson action movie where the hero must overcome impossible odds to save the day.
