I agree. I don't know what exactly art is, but I know it isn't simple behaviours. Me humming as I walk down the street isn't art. Vargas starving an animal to death isn't art. John Wayne Gacy dressing as a clown and raping and murdering little boys isn't art. The latter two are just examples of sick, depraved actions. The point of art, like religion, I feel, is to conncect with and help people come to terms with their existence.
People like Vargas aren't artists, you're right. They're not even human, I think.
