Apart from any relationship the person in the story may or may not have had (the sound on my computer isn’t working), modern celebrity tends to create a false sense of intimacy with a false image of that person. As a result, many people can be surprisingly affected by such events (which seem to occur once or twice a year). While this is at least a better response to MJ’s death than many we have seen, I am left with two questions: (1) Who is the real object of our worship? and (2) Why are these prayers not being offered for the myriad unknown and uncelebrated people who need them as much?
