Yes; they expressed their appreciation for the man and his art. If you meant something else, you should have made yourself more clear.
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist. This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair. Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second. That means there's a situation vacant.'

Wait... so if that's sarcasm... you mean you're not sorry that you do find living non-fetuses unfunny?
My emphasis.

Actually, pay better attention what I called them idiots for.
I'm less of an idiot than you are so, neener-neener and [insert more immature stuff here]

I get that you guys are pro choice but honestly all these jokes about abortion are disgusting. Makes me feel sick to my stomach.
"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."

It's not what they did, it's how they did it. They overreacted to my specifically calling Carlin an idiot for this one thing he said, namely, one of them called my opinion objectively wrong and the other proclaimed Carlin to be God. I would call both of those idiotic positions to take.
You're being obtuse , Stimbo.

That depends on the definition you use, and further , on the kind of person you are. I find human life, in all its forms, sacred. Not to the point of full pacifism , but to the extent of a fully utilitarian outlook. I'm sure you find some things sacred too, else you must be quite the disgusting and disturbing human being.

No, you're an idiot for proclaiming someone God in order to defend their character from one minor attack, as if your whole honor depended on it.
