<p>[QUOTE=&quot;verybrad, post: 88743, member: 37&quot;]What I see happening here to some degree is a demonstration of the inadequacy of language and the written word.&nbsp; Of course these people were much more than dead Jews but, in the essence of language, they were dead Jews.&nbsp; What connotation we give to this phrase determines how we react to it.&nbsp; The accompanying descriptors add to this.&nbsp; The word piles might create a different connotation than stacks.&nbsp; I don&#039;t know.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>How do we talk about these things without some language that might be disturbing to others?&nbsp; While some sensitivity in approach is desirable, don&#039;t automatically denigrate someone for using language that may be inadequate to impart the enormity of the emotional content. What can be seen as disrespect may be a lack of sensitivity and the inadequacy of our language given the circumstances.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
