I don’t know if you remember the Legion of Decency which was a Christian group that would give reviews of movies based on a moral standard, I wish someone would put such a group together again. We need some moral guidance in movies. You never know what you are going to be seeing at the movies and television as well. The Hollywood ratings are not specific enough.

No, YOU need some more moral wisdom. You know that Hollywood produces trash yet you go see it anyway. You have to realize that you are the biggest part of the problem, not Hollywood and the lack of proper 'guidance'.

Don't go and don't give them your money. It's like a 1st Century Christian going to the Coliseum and complaining about the violence. What did you expect? Doh!

The Legion of Decency had a powerful effect on the moral content of movies. Producers listened at that time, although they complained.

The idea that you can promote debauchery and glamorize it and it never gets down to the children is just ignorant.

What adults feed on always affects the lives of children and when they indulge in evil—they usually copy the evil—just like the children. It becomes a tacit ok for behaviors that destroy all relationships and happiness.
