I don't know that I find the terms used offensive. And, face it friends, parents are having to teach their young
children these "delicate" things at a much earlier age because of the prevalence of sexual abuse in our society.
Yes, but....
Is it really necessary to plant the idea of leering demons who cackle with delight when they watch people using their genitals in order to get that point across?
That's my issue.
Yes, unfortunately, you have to teach your kids unpleasant concepts at an early age. But is "demons are constantly watching you, and will be happy if you or anyone else plays with your willy" the best way to make that point?
@ sir82 ...
No matter how softly they frame it, no matter how much they may even deny it...
...all fundy religions -- all of them, no exceptions -- are fear-based...
...simply because authoritarian leaderships simply cannot conceive the possibility that their followers would truly be virtuous and ethical without being threatened in some way, shape, or form.
And freaking out little kids with demonic voyeurism not only qualifies, it also dovetails nicely with the GB's True Believer stance of the ends (compelling so-called moral purity) justifying the means (demonic voyeurism, holy shit).
Someone said "education frees your mind" But this kind of education screws-up yor mind!
