But there seems to have been an actual decline in rational thinking. The United States had become a place where entertainers and professional athletes were mistaken for people of importance. They were idolized and treated as leaders; their opinions were sought on everything and they took themselves just as seriously after all, if an athlete is paid a million or more a year, he knows he is important
so his opinions of foreign affairs and domestic policies must be important, too, even though he proves himself to be both ignorant and subliterate every time he opens his mouth. (Most of his fans were just as ignorant and unlettered; the disease was spreading.) Robert A. Heinlein To Sail Beyond The Sunset (1987)

I don’t think so. Yes, “all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God.”
There are too many honorable men out there to prove that statement otherwise.

Good looking guys tend to be sexually aggressive. Nerdy guys tend to be perfect gentlemen. Guess which ones the females flock to.

Says the lesbo who has probably done her fair share of harassing.

Oops clarification. Prove Jodie’s statement otherwise...not the Bible.
I just meant, yes everyone is a sinner. But not every man is guilty in the way she describes.

Let’s see. She talks of privilege, but was a child model and actress. And she played the role of a child prostitute in Taxi Driver. And went to Yale. Yeah, real paragon of virtue to be lecturing us.

And thus she proves how easy it is to make false accusations.

I’ll bet Jodie Foster did whatever she had to to get ahead in Hollywood.

Only industries where liberals dominate. Women are generally safe where conservatives dominate, because we view women in general as possible sisters, wives, and daughters.

Good grief, now these gals are stretching “sexual misconduct” to mean almost anything!
Now EVERY woman can be a victim, and drive us crazy for the next few years listening to them lecture and whine.
Not a good look ladies!
