I agree Pen. Holy Wood puts a lot of horrid ideas in people's minds these days. 

And worse still it programs the mind's of billions of humans to do whatever the power elite want us to do..... like accept being spied on....  and other subjects.  We were driving along yesterday and the bus in front of us had a big sign that read "Choose Respect" to program us into accepting multiculturalism..... however, how can people respect people who do not respect us?  Its a two way street.
There are many such instances of social programming in TV shows and advertisements..... 

Last night we were watching a TV show and there were lesbians making love..... (I believe to each his own and have nothing against Lesbians whatsoever)..... I said to my husband.... "there are so many parts in shows these days where lesbians are making love, and I really don't want to watch it, why are they putting so much of it in shows these days?"  Hubby said, "its social engineering to get people to accept it".

Edit:  And again watching another TV show there was a rather large section of the episode about AGW..... programming people to accept AGW in fiction TV series.


If it's seen on the tube enough .......... you know how people think. If somebody famous or (supposedly) intelligent backs it, then it must be correct/true. Where AGW is concerned? I catch them all the time. Just tonight I was watching some show about it, an alleged documentary, and one scientist said "We should be in a cooling trend right now, but we're not. 8,000 years ago we started burning fossil fuels, and Carbon Dioxide levels that had been going down started going up". Okay, what's wrong with that statement? How big were their SUV's? Better yet, how many cooling periods has there been in the last 8,000 years? When did the last Ice Age end, and how many thousands of years is there supposed to be between them? I couldn't believe that a professor popped off with that one. The problem here is our schools. The professor was so young that even he didn't know the answers. School used to mean something.

Lesbianism is a bit tougher. Not even the Bible comes down firmly against it. Probably something to do with the wild hormonal swings that women are forced to live with. Some days of the month women are more male than we are. But that doesn't mean that they should force it on everybody when so many find it unacceptable. Besides, hormonal imbalances not withstanding, the only thing that hormonal shifts that wide would prove is that true Lesbians are still denying half of who they are, right? The big picture .......... nobody wants to look at it these days. They're only interested in their little part of it. So I suspect this one comes under the heading of bias. And I have yet to meet a man who's jealous of that shift. Sure, we have one as well. Women love to point that out. But ours doesn't even rate the term shift/swing, when compared to what women go through every month. I for one, am grateful for the stability. More than thirty years of watching Terri has made sure of that.

But this covers far more issues than two. The only problem is, they never show any part of a given issue, other than the side they want to. That's not right. If they want to school the world in alternatives, then they better start showing the entire alternative. Otherwise, people will soon be on their case because they were lied to. There is always a set of consequences for every action.
