Yes, anonymously, because j.argese has so many definitions in more than 60 languages.

” He was a chef”

He was a public figure with a major communications medium to spread his liberal crap. He stopped being a chef many years ago.

The Bible is not a political suicide pact with God.

What, exactly, is a Christian value when evil dies??

Evil will not die until the Last Judgement.

Is it to say, “Gosh, that POS died? I was hoping he’d stay alive to cause even more evil”??

That "POS" was a human being with a God-given soul. Jesus loved Anthony Bourdain. He died for all of our sins.

Christians celebrate the death of evil. It is what we fight for.

Satan is evil, not human beings.

In the twilight of their years their sense of mortality has now become unbearably inescapable. And an overwhelming sense of futility of life haunting ever louder, all those wasted years, and for what? They have invested so thoroughly in their humanistic, liberal religion and now in the autumn of their years they are empty and facing an eternity unknown.

That states it very nicely, I believe.

“He self-terminated while in France on a project?

Okaaaaay....”

Has anyone even speculated the possibility of an overdose? Have they said suicide by what method? If he was working on a project, and was simply found unresponsive in his hotel room, that sounds more like an overdose. Unless, of course, he was unresponsive because he was hanging from something.

I'm thinking this thread deserves the Bob Michael political congeniality award for unwavering pandering to political foes.

Laugh already!

“The Bible is not a political suicide pact with God.”

Exactly. Being a coward then using the Bible to hide behind is still just being a coward.

“Evil will not die until the Last Judgement.”

That doesn’t mean we resign ourselves to letting evil flourish.

Truly sad. RIP. But his suicide started long ago with his addictions. Someone here commented it was the ultimate selfish act. Here is where faith in God can carry us through all suffering until the end of our lives in a way He determines. Maybe he was facing some physical suffering he did not want to go through. Maybe some shameful news was going to come out that he could not face. It really doesn’t matter. He made a bad choice and may God have mercy on his soul.

Then let God judge him. I just wanted his sorry butt off this planet. He’s gone. I’m happy about that!
