Guest Dopey Report post Posted January 17, 2003 Ok, a quick social commentary. I don't know the exact name of the program, but I believe it was on Fox last night. It was something like 'Man vs. Animals'. Now I know this may seem a little far fetched, but it is a little disturbing. I'm sorry, because I am a christian, and someone threatened Lions on me a little while ago, and then this program with man and beasts... Are we headed that way soon? Death Metal, Gangsta Rap, Violent Video games, Snuff T.V., NHB fighting, Porn, and now Man vs. Beasts!!!??? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest NoCalMike Report post Posted January 17, 2003 Gangsta rap doesn't really excist anymore except when the radio plays music from the early 90's. Death Metal is on the underground circuit and shows no signs of getting any bigger, besides, nothing in the content of those songs was "made up" by the artists. It is/was things ACTUALLY happening in life, they just chose to tell the story through music. The more disturbing question you that should come from those two genres of music is, "what can be done from preventing those kinds of things from happening" Porn is nothing new, probobaly has been around ever since you could capture pictures on film, and before that, brothels were around(still are). Exsists in EVERY nation in some form or another. In fact, most nations with less strict laws regarding sex, GENERALLY have less sex crimes....go figure~! NHB fighting has been around forever as well. Violent video games, well they are video games for MATURE gamers like you and I, now if a parent chooses to buy their KID that game, that is their own PROBLEM. Man vs. Beast, well I didn't see it, however I don't think it was a fighting contest. More like, who can eat more, or pull more weight.

Guest Dopey Report post Posted January 17, 2003 Most of what you say is true. Maybe I'm just a little nervous because of the horrible spiritual condition this country is in. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest NoCalMike Report post Posted January 17, 2003 Don't be too nervous. Just think we could be living in Beijiing or Iraq..... Improvements can be made, but nothing mankind has EVER done is perfect.....considering the HUMAN ERROR factor, I would say mankind has done a decent job.

Guest Tim Report post Posted January 17, 2003 Maybe I'm just a little nervous because of the horrible spiritual condition this country is in. Why is that? Maybe because morons like you try and force it down peoples throats. Excuse me if a don't give a shit what some Israelites wrote thousands of years ago, and what people nowadays interpret that as saying. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

There's a lot of bands that use different crimes and things as inspiration, but much of it's rooted in fantasy. Depends on the band, though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

God is the One who is forcing things down your throat. When you eat food, you're eating His food. When you are drinking water, you're drinking His water. "WHY DO THE HEATHEN RAGE, AND THE PEOPLE IMAGINE A VAIN THING? THE KINGS OF THE EARTH SET THEMSELVES, AND THE RULERS TAKE COUNCEL TOGETHER, AGAINST THE LORD, AND AGAINST HIS ANOINTED,... HE THAT SITTETH IN THE HEAVENS SHALL LAUGH: THE LORD SHALL HAVE THEM IN DERISION. THEN SHALL HE SPEAK UNTO THEM IN HIS WRATH, AND VEX THEM IN HIS SORE DISPLEASURE."...

Ok yes, a lot of it is fantasy, with a bit of truth in it....like something severely exaggerated, for the GROSS FACTOR Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest snuffbox Report post Posted January 17, 2003 The fact that America releases its unused violence and sex-drive through video games, music, official fighting contests, and pornography is a good thing. The Romans were killing off people by the horde by tossing them to the lions and gladiator games. There is a world of difference in the social behavior there. Any Americans who are mentally incabable to release their angst/hrmones safely/legally (beatings, brawling, rape etc) are the exception, not the rule. This is because these fols arent REALLY human. They are walking talking pieces of retarded waste. There are similarities between the US and Rome in terms of the governments and such. Pax Americana is a bit scary....

When you eat food, you're eating His food. When you are drinking water, you're drinking His water. No, see, if I eat food, it belongs to me. If I drink water, it is my water. It belongs to me, because I either paid for it, or was given it. And sex, drugs, porno, etc. If you're actions hurt no-one except yourself, then no-one should stop you. The government has a duty to protect people from others, not themsleves. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
