that applies to both sides of the argument.
I was pointing out the absurdity of the sycophantic praise and the hagiographic eulogies being heaped on people whose actions are incompatible with the connoted and denoted meanings of the words, irrespective of any moral judgement about the actions themselves. Fleeing a battlefield might be the right or the wrong action, charging the enemy might be a right or wrong choice. They could both be right or both be wrong, depending on the situation. But both actions cannot both be described as "brave". Likewise, people who fight to stay alive and who take proactive means to end their lives cannot both be brave or dignified. Regardless of what you think of either choice.
As for the proof of God issue, there is no proof of the moral equality of black and white people, or the lack of a physiological disorder that causes homosexuality. Should we then act as if such concepts are not valid?
