This is INTERNational, Vicchio. One of the crew members was an Israeli Military Colonel.

NPRA Yes, and one was from INDIA, and since I am an American, and there were 5 Americans on board the American Shuttle.. This is the second Shuttle we have lost. I didn't intend to slight those from other places..

Killa I think your off topic. It's not appropriate when someone (mrvicchio) payed a very personal tribute to fallen hero's.
Make another string and the community will answer your questions.

I dont see you "sighing" for the thousands of other people being killed everyday, even slower and worse deaths than these astronauts.

Yes.. bad thing happened.. 7 people died...
But when I saw it, I gave an overwhelming "oh...ah well"

I know I must seem like an uncaring bastard to some of you... but frankly..Plain and simple without an sugar coating at all... I don't pray for anyone else in te world and I'm not going to start with them...

To me, people die.. it happens... I don't really care.

Sure it's not a cause for a celebration... but I can't do squat about it... not that I would.

I'm aware that I will probably get flamed for this post but go ahead and flame... if that's how you feel you need to vent, then do it...

peace.

I think there is a huge difference. We lost the worlds most advanced space craft in history and 7 highly trained and special people.
Well you may not think much about what Nasa does but end the end it does effect us all for the positive.

I pray for many things, but when a person, or persons RISK death to better the lives of everyone...
Life sux, we all know this. People are hurt, maimed and killed on a daily basis... but few people dedicate their lives to the pursuit of something bigger then themselves.

Space exploration, and the advances such bring to us here on earth is very important. It also is very dangerous. When people whom risk thier lives pay the ulitmate price, it gives one pause as to what and why they chose to risk all that.
Isn't that worth a moment of thankful prayer, for their souls, and more importantly, thier children?

All of this attacks and flames tlaking about the "Thousands of other" deaths in the world miss the point, and sadly, show the callous side of humanity, I pray for you.
