What is news? Everyu time we have soembody die

[nadinbrzezinski]

we have this, but gee this is not breaking news.

I hate to tell you this, but it is. Whether it is Jerry Falwell or Anna Nicole Smith, or the Juice, or Jacko, each one of those deaths ARE news. They aer news because they live their lives in the public eye. You may argue whether it is by choice or default, but they are public figures and their deaths ARE beraking news

Now how you personally react to any of these deaths tells us more about you than about them. What we know off them is their public record and their public persona. In some cases they are not very nice individuals, but what happens to a person after death we really do not know. Heaven and Hell are OUR inventions, and they change from faith to faith, in both concept and excecution. Hell, there are some faiths that don't have it...

So stop this he is in hell already...

If you believe it, fine... but for those people who look for ammunition of the insantiy of a certain goup, you are giving them ammo. Plenty of it... just like the freepers and we laught at them, do every so often too.

Now we shall see what is a valid breaking news item, transform itself into the usual media circus that they always become... at least since the media became so monopilized that it is not even funny.

So the news is over, let the circus commence, and you all should stop participating in it.

I presume you ARE a minister, because they're the only ones who say things like "... and you all should..."

[nadinbrzezinski]

Youa ere an adult after all

3. There are many things

I believe people should do, but I wouldn't be so obnoxious as to publicly proclaim them.

[nadinbrzezinski]

4. That is ok

but in this virtual hysteria people should NOT participate in the circus... they are just becoming part of it

in other words, they SHOULD show maturity.

This is NOT our finest hour

5. wise words

our reactions to this news does, indeed, tell a lot about our character. And kindly remember that those who wish to characterize liberals in a certain manner will use some threads here to prove points.

Instead of participating in the circus, I will wish you peace.

[nadinbrzezinski]

6. Same to you

peace and all.....
