“I believe that this early healing talk is both foolish and immoral.
It is foolish because one does not speak about healing the same day”
Hell, we healed from 911 in a year. Now people even think the victims deserved to die. We heal quick these days...at least the ones not touched more than in passing by the tragedy!
Oops! Not tragedy, I mean the evil!

I am sick to death of hearing about “The healing process”. Why is it that these days any event more sever than a stubbed to requires grief counselors, anger counselors, etc to allow everyone affected to start healing. People used to be able to deal with things in their own way without outside assistance. They would grieve or not and move on with their lives as they chose. Now we have to have a million candles, cards, teddy bears, etc piled up at the location of an incident so that everyone can see how bad we feel about what happened. I guess I’m cynical, but it’s just so much BS to me.
Maybe that's part of the reason of the rash of "conspiracy theories" about 9/11. (and I'm not discounting the "hate Bush" aspect of it all one bit.) Society expected everyone to forgive and forget, oh about a week after the event.
Well, we sure did and forgot about the evildoers and the souls that jumped 110 floors to their death and the humans maimed for life and the others crushed by 2 gigantic skyscrapers. So undigested grief comes out sideways.
We live in a country where wringing our hands and crying oh woe is me is supposedly appropriate for the most trivial and wrong reasons, but must heal and have this undefinable sense of closure post haste if we are confronted with true evil.
