Aliantha. I think you are being unfair. You started a post which led to a debate about the issues at hand. It's a sensitive subject, so naturally there is a risk of people getting a little more heated than a post about, say "Tofu".
I am guilty of getting a little heated myself on this one. But I am still glad you raised it. The fact that humans generally have the capacity to find humour in the most disturbing areas, is an interesting thing in itself. Maybe it speaks of our own relationship with the horror and pain which is an ever present feature of existance.
