A day after the LeBron thing. That's weird.
I don't have an anger problem, I have an idiot problem.
 
I was going to post: "What a terrible loss to basketball." because I'm watching a piece of filth Christian Film (God is Not Dead 2) which has made me put my cynical blinkers on. Actually, Basketball was huge to me in my youth, absolutely huge, and Kobe was THE BEST star so actually, RIP very sincerely. :lighter:

It has always bothered me knowing that most pro sports players, of any sport, attribute their success to a sky hero. But in times like this, I put that aside, and simply say the person attributed to the game, which he did, and his fans will miss him.
In that case I see an opportunity to ridicule Christianity Brian37: I wonder if it was God or the Devil who made that helicopter accident...hmmmmmmm...
Well what was he doing in a chopper? I mean he's retired person so it's not like he's in hurry.
teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"

It is not a matter of ridicule to have empathy for your fellow humans. His death is an unfortunate matter of reality. Arguing over the cause in super hero terms is absurd to me sure. But having watched my own late mother take her last breath in her nursing home, it is not anything I wish on anyone, regardless of what I may think of their logic in times like this.''
