I read through this entire post and I gotta say, it's pretty amusing...

now, I don't care if Snoop is on the muppets or not...although the lack of electric mayhem saddens me...I've never heard a song of his in my life, and although I don't approve of some of his choies, I'm a foirm believer in not judging others...

anyhw, what I DON'T beleive in is watchdog groups. I beleive that I should have the right to choose for myself and any minors in my charge what is appropriate to watch. Censorship is not a good thing. Case in point, if "watchdog" groups had been successful 2000 years ago, we wouldn't have a Christian bible today (of course,back then, instead of letter writing, it was lion feeding time). You sure wouldn't have shakespeare either. Not to mention say, Anne Frank's Diary...there's a lot of really good material out there that have been targetted by watchdog groups of the past....

Oh, about sex and violence in media. Do you let your kids read the bible? Cause there's some pretty heavy pornograpic material in there. Anyone read song of solomon? (especially if you have the correct translation, where the word "navel" or "bellybutton" is more accurately translated as "******"). Now, you're going to say that Solomon was speaking about his wife, but the guy had about 40 of them. This was the wisest man ever? what about King David, a confessed murderer and adulterer? Lot, the only man worth saving in soddom and gommorah offered his two virgin daughters up to be raped by a viscious mob and was rewarded by God for it! Makes Judas betrayal seem like kid stuff....Jacob, founder of the land of israel, lied and tricked his father and brother, and showed great pride towards God...Moses was a drunkard, as was Abraham, who also cheated on his wife. I forget who it was who got drunk and allowed himself to be seduced by both his daughters? The disciples of Jesus were all deadbeat dads....

Anyhow, that's probably enough to get my point across. All of the above mentioned biblical examples were redeemable. Why isn't Snoop? And why should e be censored when these stories aren't? It's a double standard....

But then, that's why, even though I'm christian, I refuse to join a church...the entire faith is very hypocritical....

but enough about that...I have to go think of more muppety stuff :smile:

You know, I've never seen any asterixes in the Bible... better check that out!

again, by Stryder Wolfe But then, that's why, even though I'm christian, I refuse to join a church...the entire faith is very hypocritical....
Don't get me started. Think of the Rightwing Religious zealots that kill people so there won't be abortions. And the same people who love their fellow man... only if he is white, strait, rich, and male. And don't get me started about oter religions, and Suicide bombers. Trust me! I'll never stop.

I cannot stand people blinded so much by their own faith, reading between the lines, that they can't even read the real lines!!!

Gangs

Gang appeal has no appeal, it's neither "funny or zany" even in Muppet land.

Ask the business owner robbed at gunpoint, or the parents of an innocent child executed by gang members. A deviant lifestyle and life of crime is why one joins the CRIPS. If he denounced his ties with this very violent and destructive group who conducted the interview, where is the article? Instead, he acts like a calling card.:cool:

Respectfully,
Patty E.

Actually, I thought the Daily Show story on the hot new reading trend referencing the New York City street kids (with a shot from Sesame Street) was incredibly funny. I laughed and laughed.

Oh, and Patty, I think if you don't start answering people's questions, neither you, nor your points will be taken very seriously.

Re: Snoop Doggy Dog- Degenerate Lifestyle

Apparently, Mr. Rivkin is interested in making "vulgar" fashionable.

Respecfully,

Wow! Isn't that just a tad bit completely insane?

I love vulgar humour. "Strangers with Candy," John Waters, Margaret Cho, you name it. If its filthy and like poison to America's impressionable minds, I'm all for it.

Okay, so I'm being sarcastic. I place INTELLIGENCE & ORIGINALITY over leanings toward either vulgarity or purity.
P.S. I just downloaded a Snoop Dogg song and, as a result, I've chosen to devote my life to profanity, pornography, violence and illicit substances. Behold the power of some guy named 'Snoop.'

Strangers With Candy is my all time favorite show!
I miss it and want them to put it on DVD. But since it is so impure and vulgar and not good for me to see, I don't think I will ever see that day come.
