If they truly asked me what I thought about the situation I would attempt to be as honest as possible. I try to live truthfully and directly when it comes to others.

Would I seek them out to throw the folly of them accepting an idea without evidence in their face on top of losing their kids or the kid losing his eye?

Of course, not. I'm not a monster.

Would I tell them their method of coping is stupid no matter how ridiculous I find it on top of the tragedies?

No way, I'm not looking to hurt anyone especially when they're at most likely the lowest point in their life.

So, I should try to hurt people when they are down? I'm specifically avoiding being horrid to people because I believe in being kind. That is why I was annoyed by the whole "god saved muh boy" rigamarole in the paper. The complete lack of sensitivity towards the parents of the departed kids by rolling that out in a newspaper article.

I also never said that they couldn't use whatever coping method they felt like going with. However the flip side of that is that I can still deem it distasteful. I can even think it is illogical because it is my opinion. I don't have to hurt people because I disagree with them so I generally let people cope how they want to. You do you; I'll do me.
