I asked this question because a man put his own suicide on the internet and really sick people watched on the net and urged him on.

There are millions of people watching things like Big Brother and reality TV from the operation rooms in the hospitals for hours daily, spending most of their life in front of the TV watching "reality" on the screen. Do you know what's the next step to bring the ratings even higher?... You've guessed it's the "reality" show of human executions. I am not sure if we vote for this kind of "reality" being so sick, or there is somebody there (Big Brother) who wants us to be so, but that is all pretty scary even for people who are born in that reality.

Pretty Darn Sick!
This is how the Roman Empire crumbled. People got over decadent, careless, laxadasical, and were not happy with what they had. Barbarians from the north invaded and took over. For us, it will probably be the Mexicans.

society as a whole is pretty sane - there are a few individuals that fall below this, and do savage things. Sick huh?

Unless you allow it, there is no such thing as "society" really. Create your own world, friends and family. If something is that terrible, refuse to participate.

people have a morbid fascination with death...we all rubber neck a RTA on the motorway, cos it's something we all face (death, not the motorway!) and we don't see it everyday..
it's human nature
