Whether you know it or not, you have beliefs, perceptions and opinions like the rest of us, not just solid facts in your head.

Actually, that sounds more like humility and a willingness to comply or submit to a belief in things outside yourself. This is not just religion, but of philosophy and many other ethical constructs as well, or for anyone who complies with norms and values of their society.

Actually, it’s more like an obsession of yours. As I mentioned, you and I can be discussing something completely different and you constantly harp on this point and seem to portray it as my only card—you respond to nearly everything I write here from that standpoint.

I quite disagree. This whole thread between me and you is you taking issue with my dislike and concern about what I’ve heard about this scene in the movie. You defend their right to artistic expression, yet seem to take issue with my freedom of expression. It’s not like I have any power whatsoever to do anything to the director or ban the movie or am even advocating any sort of restriction on it whatsoever. I am simply saying I find what I’ve heard about it repugnant, unnecessary and unwise.

And yet, you keep coming back at me on this like I am not entitled to an opinion.

And you don’t think I’m addressing them as well? I think you also under-rate the trauma and likelihood of child abuse and abductions.

I never said anything about this, I simply questioned if this was wise, or potentially harmful, yet you make me out to be Tipper Gore.
