It's completely tragic for what happened. But when people start making statements like "He was the first victim of 9/11" when clearly all the evidence has been vaporized?
I know humanity loves to tell a narrative that makes things seem more significant and important than they really are. But filling in the blanks when there are huge unknowns -- instead of just outright saying "Well, we cannot be entirely sure" -- is far a more mythological approach than a factual one.
So I think it's a fair question to say, "Well, prove it then." And it can't be done. That's not necessarily disrespectful at all -- especially with the truth.
