When I was in school and living at home, my mother, was convinced that I was doing all these awful teenage things(by awful, I mean normal teen stuff) because of the music I listened to. Because of the borg, music was a great emotional release for me, so music at that time was a HUGE part of my life. The first time i ever skipped a class, I got caught. My mom was called and when I got home, my entire room was stripped BARE of anything that was related to music. Posters, magazines, books, my stereo, along with my tapes, collectable '45's (remember them?) and any kind of t-shirt that had a rock group on it. Needless to say I lost my mind (or so it seemed!)
I guess that the point is, your teacher blamed Doom for the same reason that my mom blamed the music. A quick easy scapegoat. If it looks bad, it must be evil...alot of people still blame music for things that kids do,(wasn't Marilyn Manson blamed for Columbine as well?) and they don't look at the real cold hard facts. They don't want to admit that there's a problem with what they're doing, and what they're teaching.(living in and encouraging social classes).
Anyway, good morning to all I have to get ready for work! I like something to think about while I drudge though the day. Great Topic SYN!!
