Yes, yes, Chrissy. I corrected my spelling error.
I meant "strange".
Always good for a chuckle, Chrissy...

I see no problem with having channels like Disney and Hallmark for some folks and HBO and Showtime for other folks.
I am perfectly capable of sitting down with a kid and watching Hanna Montana, which is a pretty kid friendly sitcom, and then sending said kid in the other room so I can watch Deadwood on HBO (they really need to bring that show back). If you don't like the shows conservatives watch...change the channel. I note for the record that the channels go in both directions and advise my easily offended conservative friends to do likewise when faced with nudity, bad language, and violence (or all three if your watching a REALLY good show).

Some segments of our society ARE defending it, or at least are not doing anything about it....
Who, specifically?

Yes, a family can be ANY mix of folks...but that is only after a catastrophic failure of the traditional one.
I think I disagree with that. How do you define catastrophic failure? How do you define traditional family? Does divorce fall into the latter or the former? Is parental death considered a failure? What about families untraditional from the get-go, like lesbian/gay couples with an actively involved father/mother?

Wulf, those ain't hippies, they might say they are, but that's no different than folks hiding behind Christianity neither, what one SAYS means far less than what they DO.
And no, many of those communes didn't fail, they just keep a damned low profile in the aftermath of Waco, Ruby Ridge, and more recently the FLDS incident and it's not hard to imagine why since they're pro-legalisation.
But unlike the fantasy that's been sold to you, Hippies can be damn stringent and generally are, about one single thing - earn your keep or get the hell out.
You'd actually be shocked given what your expectations are, were you to visit one for real and come up against the reality - and then you'd laugh yourself sick once you saw what they bought instead of a tractor to pull field equipment with.
Even *I* thought that was nuts, but they got away with it legally, and cheaper than the John Deere they'd intended to buy, oddly enough.
Oh, and as for "Strange" ?
I AM strange, having grown up so much of a latchkey kid that I'm practically a social feral.
But I get by pretty damn good now, don't I ?
The world needs more weird, you ask me.

That's laughable. Let's put a Party face on it.
Disney is no more evil than Santa Claus is evil.
I actually had a point to go along with that, but I just stood back and basked in the glory of that statement.
So.....
Disney is no more evil than Santa Claus is evil....

What about the Easter Bunny? A furry rodent, deceiving and frustrating children for decades with promises of hidden treasure, all while bathed in the light of Christianity, how utterly repulsive!@
And don't dismiss the evilness of Big Bird either. A dastardly and clever avian deception designed to attract and entrap kids into demonic brain games including indoctrination into the use of Arabic numerals, pure evil.
The world is a very dangerous place. Evil is everywhere, but no more prevalent than your local Mormon church. Watch out, evil bake sale benefitting African AIDS orphans, and Gay hate speech this weekend.
