Apathy is Joy

Guest
Every time there is a story in the news about a child getting killed or raped, everyone starts whining and carrying on about it.

What's the big dead? Everyone dies, this is nothing new. Why can't everyone (the families included) just stop feeling sorry for themselves and change their attitudes?

I believe that we all have the power to abandon all feelings and change our attitudes but most people don't have the courage to choose apathy. Why do you suppose they don't?
Su,

I already have and apathy has worked wonders for me. I no longer care and I'm very happy mind you.
Well Booohooooohooooo life isn't perfect. People suddenly expect it to be perfect all of a sudden.
Cynical Writer from America-74,

yes and I would also smack them upside the head.
Compassion is a sign of weakness, a weakness that the media plays upon for profit.

I think you need some help.. Say a 14 year old girl is abducted, raped and brutally killed.. Her family would be devestated and its not because they are feeling sorry for themselves.. they are mourning the loss of someone's life.. someone who didnt get to do all the things they should have been able to do.. she never had the chance to experience things like college, love, marriage, kids, friends, and so much more.. they are also upset because she will never physically be there with them again.. they will miss her laugh, her smile, her personality and all of that.. Everyone does die but for some death comes too soon.

.......you're right.....I wouldn't care if you died......you are going to die someday anyway , might as well be now....(this is your philosphy , my friend)....just replayed for you.......is this how you feel about your parents?.....I am guessing you are about 15 years old......how did you get to be a modern day philosopher so young?....your wisdom is astounding......if you had a 3 month old child die suddenly from abuse from a sitter, I'm guessing you wouldn't shed a tear....yes , my friend, you are right in your philosophy , and the rest of the world is ignorant.........if you were in a car accident and were trapped.....before the spilling fuel could catch fire....while you pleaded for an outreached hand....one of your followers looks you straight in the eye and says...." I don't see what all the fuss is about, you were going to die someday anyway".....and calmly walks away.........I hear burning is a painful way to go......
