  1. Anyway, at the risk of being called things, I never saw logic in that "children are sacred" way of tought. A human life is a human life, regardless of age. And if you want to put comparative values on them, the most lgic approach would be rating children AFTER 25-50 years olds, since they're already formed people who basically keep the world running, not the other way around.

    1. @nerthos It's not that children are sacred. Its that Westboro Baptist is basically saying "The kids got what they had coming to them, Connecticut legalized gay marriage, rawr."

      1. @zeldatra @anarchycarcino I'm not talking about the protest.

        1. @nerthos Right, well, I have agreement with you. We shall discuss it over hard eggnog and CURHAYZEE Style videos.

          1. @anarchycarcino Sounds good to me.

        2. @nerthos I get the notion. I guess people value children more because they're what's going to come after them.

          1. @greenenchilada Yeah, but a generation of adults can survive and perpetrate the species if they lose a generation of children. A generation of children who lose their generation of adults is doomed to failure, or, in best case scenario, the loss of culture and knowledge.

            1. @nerthos It saves time if they don't lose a generation, and can worry about more important things, like killing each other and religion.

              1. @greenenchilada Stop derailing the conversation.

                1. @nerthos Derailing it from what, we're still talking about the unimportance of children's lives.

                  1. @greenenchilada Your post didn't really made sense in context.

                    1. @nerthos Okay the things at the end were a little derailing. But still, one generation of children is still something to protect.

                      1. @greenenchilada Yes, but people shouldn't overreact and consider the murder of a kid something worse than the murder of a good working man.

                        1. @nerthos Fair.

                          Wednesday, 19-Dec-12 01:12:32 UTC from web
    2. @nerthos Well, it's not like they would be justified protesting a regular funeral either. I guess adding that it's a kids' is fueling the hype.
