My point is that people have lost their sense of perspective. We have a tragedy that got too much attention, when there are bigger tragedies that people can actually do something about which are ignored.
I am "above it all" only because I was not involved in this case in way, don't have a stake in it emotionally or otherwise, and I stand against the culture which is represented by Casey Anthony's actions.
I already do support charities that are working to help in many countries all over the world, some charities being secular and some not.
You seem to have missed the part where I lay the blame on "we as a society". I am part of that society, and I have not done all I can to try and impact it for the better. I am as much to blame as part of society as anyone else.
That said, a society is not an entity in and of itself, but a reflection of the individuals who are members of it. It's then on the individual level that change has to occur before it is reflected in society.
My "preaching" is definitely trying to take this tragedy and use the foothold it has created to bring a sense of perspective back to the individual level, so that people who could not and cannot do anything about this case can still make a difference to prevent things like this from happening again. They can redirect the negative energy they've built up to do something positive, instead of stewing and wishing bad things at Casey Anthony.
If that is being offensive and selfish, then I am guilty as charged. I'm sorry and I'll stop posting.
