You know, it's funny, but one MO quote that has always stuck with me was something about "The Devil can only copy. If you stop using everything the Devil uses, there's nothing left." I think this originally had to do with music, pointing out that music can be used for good or evil, but it's not music that's evil but what we do with it.
Aren't movies like that? I don't want to go back to all the years of having to pick a movie off a list of "rated movies" for fear that I would somehow get polluted or led into some kind of heinous crime if I happened to watch something some almighty WS member somewhere dubbed "evil", or even if I just "wasted" a couple of hours in "meaningless" enjoyment.
And I'm glad I have regained the right to decide what my kids cannot watch- boy, did my first ones ever get sick of Sound of Music, Brigadoon, and Banbi!
