Our World and It's Values are Crazy

Is anyone else sick sick sick of hearing about Michael Jackson? OK< He was a fabulous entertainer, he died of drug over doses, he lived in opulent luxury spending over a half a billion dollars in six months on things he wanted and his family wants his money and his EX wants his money and his chef wants to tell what he knows and there will be a billion people watching the funeral. There have been over 2 and 1/2 million downloads for his songs this week- like you won't be able to get his music ten years from now and on top of all of this, Neverland may become the new Graceland. Now I see on tv that some woman says that Michael Jackson's head showed up on the trunk of her tree the day that he died and it sort of looks like Jesus too and she says "they are basically the same, they are both important icons."OK, what is wrong with our world anyhow??? Is this what the media has done to people's brains? No Doctor, No soldier giving his life, no nurse, no humanitarian nor any charity worker would ever get this kind of attention (and most of these people made NO money doing what is right and there is something wrong with this whole thing - I don't get this victim mentality that our media portrays for someone so gifted and who had so much and so much more potential. I am praying that God watches out over his children but what hope do they have being hounded by the media too? -Mary Lou
