In the main, if they're doing the hard sell on me out of genuine concern, I don't mind at all. It's when they start trying to regulate what anyone ELSE can do/say/read etc. that I get really, really angry. And, to be honest, nervous. The whole "family values" thing scares me for the same reason. It is a pretty ironic choice of books to complain about, though!

I hate to say it, but the whackjobs would probably do a better job of it. :/ Yeah, come to think of it, I guess he did. I hate to say it, but the whackjobs would probably do a better job of it. :/

And if America slides into secular humanism homosexual liberal badness, God with blame them for letting it happen. And didn't M. Night already do this with 'The Village'?
