> Did you have compassion for Hitler once he was dead?
Oddly enough, he was dead logn before I came on the scene.
But even so: I do not hold myself to be a member of a religion that preaches compassion. I am free to be an unfeeling bastard if that's what the situation calls for, and to take pleasure in the downfall of mine enemies. It's just... amusing to watch the compassionate sometimes.
I have compassion for the surviving family and pray that they get real before they pass...does that make you feel better that I have no compassion for this dead baby-butcher?
People worried about compassion for dead people seem to me to be the kind that wear a yellow ribbon for this, a red ribbon for that and a purple ribbon for something else.
Functionally/practically meaningless things people do and say because it makes them feel better or more important...
Almost as amusing as watching an atheist try to lecture Christians on what is expected of them. It seems to be a strange habit among you people.
