urgh god we talk about this all the bloody time in theology. as a general rule because i know the untimely death of innocents is unfortunate, i feel bothered by it - but only because i know it is an unfortunate thing. i'm not saddened by it as such, id be sadden if those ppl had been in my life, or i had know , or know of any of them - but i think its kind of like, if you aren't aware of something then it isn't in your world, your not aware that it (or they in this case) effects you, so there is no reason to show a response to it....
i dont like that idea like, its wishy washy relative shite, but thats how we think these days...
