Culture of life?

Not to be too snarky, but... oh hell, who am I kidding? If I can't be snarky, what the hell do I have left?

Anyway. For a so-called "culture of life" that the powers-that-be are trying to encourage, we seem to be awfully obsessed with death these days. First there was Terry Schiavo's death vigil. Now we've just finished with the Pope's death vigil. Gah.

On second thought, given the unseemly morbidity of the past few week's headline news, I can't summon up the snark necessary to make myself feel better about the pathetic state to which the pop media has deteriorated. Out of respect for Pope John Paul II, I'll just have to be content with telling the pop media to go "F" itself.
