I assume you're talking about the charred bodies on a daily basis in Iraq? What a kind heart you have. Eric Yost <eyost1132@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote: Eve Black: You people are not worth the effort. The denial is too strong. Rather than look at reality the way it is . . . you rejoice in the beauty and wonder (or whatever you said) of the world. That's consistent with denying there's global warming, denying that spanking is harmful . . . There are many things worse than spanking--such as being forced by heat and smoke to jump 90 stories to the ground, where your body turns into pink mist and a mangled pulp that looks like stewed tomatoes trying to wear clothes. The point being that a beautiful butterfly swirling around a baby in its carriage is as much a part of life as sudden and cruel deaths. Denying the butterfly doesn't make you wiser or more profound than someone who denies the shattered body. It just makes you gloomier. ------------------------------------------------------------------ To change your Lit-Ideas settings (subscribe/unsub, vacation on/off, digest on/off), visit www.andreas.com/faq-lit-ideas.html __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
