    TV is getting weird? I guess it’s time to switch to a channel that glorifies violence. Yeah, that’s normal.

      I like my violence with high impact sexual gratification.

      nothing gets my engine going faster than a bunch of sweaty dudes raging in a circle while they bang each other in the rear just to get ahead.

      Frankly would rather that than coded religious messages that encourage bigotry. At least (some) of the negative effects of violence are usually shown - not so much when it comes to thinking you’re better than others because you were told your Sky-Daddy said so.

        Even without understanding sexual attraction, the concept of pregnancy is pretty simple once you get over the guilt and shame of anatomy.

        Explaining why people kill each other is why more complicated.

        Well one is a basic biological process, the other is something we made up to entertain ourselves and accumulate power.

        It’s really not. Birth and conception is a much easier conversation and concept for kids to grasp than the finality that is death.
