As many of you probably know, Heath Ledger died yesterday. Most people probably don't know much about him and I admit I don't either, I just know he didn't seem to fit into the "hollywood" stereotype and he had an adorable little daughter, and well, he wasn't bad looking himself! I was at work when I refreshed cnn.com and there it was and I was shocked and my heart sunk and I don't know why it upset me that much but it did. Late last night before I went to bed, I was looking at a celebrity gossip site and came across this:

It made me so angry I could barely sleep. These people even picket funerals of soldiers. All religions teach that there is a higher being, and they give outlines of how people should live a good life with peace and understanding and love, but there are just extremists who take little parts of it and blow it out of proportion. Who made these people the judge? Did they miss the whole part of the bible about loving everyone and forgiving people? What about letting God judge how a person lived their life?
I know people here have different views on things like this, so I'm not trying to start a debate. I just needed to rant here. This is so low. He was just a human, and he died and he has family that loves him and friends that love him, and these jerks will be picketing his funeral over a movie!
