Abstinence-only sex education makes our children stupid
For instance: A new study out of the Bradley Hasbro Children's Research Center found that "anal sex is on the rise" among straight teenagers and young adults. According to a heavy-breathing report from ABC News, straight kids are having butt sex "to please a partner, to have sex without the risk of pregnancy, or to preserve their virginity."

Yes Man: a feel-good movie that's really worth seeing
Perhaps you've seen the trailers and thought, "Wow, that's another terrible film with Jim Carrey." After seeing The Number 23, how could I blame you? I thought the same thing myself, even though 23 was so bad it was a riot. However, a bit inexplicably, I was drawn to this film.

The encouragement of sectarianism without the establishment of a fundamental partnership amongst religions must stop if religion in any recognizable form is to survive the ongoing Westernisation of the globe--or if the ( Read more... ) -
The Dark Knight
The Dark Knight is deeply unsettling, highly disturbing, and endlessly surprising. It's almost two films in one, and I was certainly blown away. Nolan and Ledger accomplished very much, and the film is nothing short of inspired.
I have to think more on this film, and I am not yet sure if I like it--or if I should like it.
It's obviously much better ( Read more... ) -
Most righteous dude!
I just finished Bill & Ted's Bogus Journey.
Unbelievable. But better than E.T. by a lot.
