the puritans aren't really trying to take over, it's rather 200-year-old echoes of puritan beliefs and values mixed in with christianity. it's really retarded and i don't feel like bragging about this for the nth time, but it's too fucked up. some people got the real human values wrong and that's sad.


btw, wtf is up with your sig, it's too wide, fucks up my screen!

i don't know what thier problem is because if that person decides that it is not ok to talk about sex then they should ALSO decide that it is ok not to talk about violence. It is pretty cheap to suggest that violence is ok but sex isn't. That is messed up. Tell your friend "what does your church teach about violence, and violence in the media, does it support it?" if he says yes then he is off his bloody rocker, i'll tell you that much. Then remind him that "even mormons have sex, yes, you wait until you are married but then then you have LOTS of sex and LOTS of childern so don't tell me that sex is bad and needs to be kept hush hush". If he trys to argue then he is dumb. Tell him another mormon said this to you.

North America is in general a much more socially old-fashioned and puritanical place than many other nations of the world. A lot of people in America especially hold on to conservative christian values in which sex, especially before marriage, is really discouraged, which i agree is total bullshit. War and violence have always been a big part of American life (watch "Bowling for Columbine") so I guess that's why it's worked into their society as being so much more acceptable than sex. But the irony is that violence is what kids are being shown all the time on TV, then Americans wonder why kids snap and sometimes go on killing sprees. If they showed more sex on TV, I'm certain that sort of thing would happen a fraction of the time that it does now.

You almost made me laugh when you said war and violence are a big part of "american" life. Bullshit, plain and simple. Since the civil war there hasn't been a war waged on american soil. How is war a part of our culture? Sure, we do *fight* in a lot of wars, but that is primarily dislocated from the american psyche. Soldiers, aren't really respected in America, despite all the trendy flag waving that occurs whenever we decide to go level some country to the ground. Look at what happened after the korean war, nobody even cared, look at vietnam, people took a negative stance to those people, who were fighting a war they didn't even understand. Recently the media portrays much rapport for our soldiers, which I think reeks of insincerity.

Europe has had two great wars waged on its soil in the past 100 years and until recently (~15 years ago?) was divided in half. War is something the european people still know very well, the generations that fought and lived through world war 2 are still somewhat alive. It's a memory that is still fresh in the collective mind of europe.

If you think portrayed violence leads to real violence then I conjecture you are primarily misled. Europe's stance on "violence in art" is no less ridiculous then our stance on "sexual content in art." Both parties are wrong...
