Congress Movie Debate

[aaaantoine]

Hm, I thought this was going to be a congressional debate about what movie to go out and see tonight.

It is an interesting topic. Is religious subject matter really influencing the MPAA's rating system?

this is quite scary....

regardless of my views.. if MPAA considers "any serious discussion" a PG steppingstone it makes sense....

and if I choose to instill a certain view of Religion in my kid,s Iwant to be warned ... because like pregrnancy and sex and sexual aorintation these are serious discussions, that need to hapen in the famly before seen on the big screen...

but the fact that congress - the republican part of it - feels almighty enough to demand that religion is not a serious subject matter, and should not be included in considerations is scary .. what next.. some chrch will vandalize a TV station that criticized its homophobia, and congress will be compacent to it?

I know I am exxagerrating, but I am very sensitive to governmental oversteps like this ...

on another note .. I just found this blog post aout MPAA and south Park...

While I am still frightened by the steps taken by the congress, this puts MPAA in a different light ..
