Now that movie is such a telling historical document..... Honestly, heated or not I'm grateful that we can still all argue like this openly and no-one will be knocking on the door. Well...they may tap our phones but hey...national security and all... I'm a lot more pissed off that once again politicians who have been majorly {censored}ing up the basic needs of the people ie. health care, job security, decent wages, education, reasonable insurance, disaster management etc. are using emotional but personal individual choices as political attention getting and button pushing. Gay marriage, religous teachings, birth control, abortion are all examples of personal choices that are better argued between private people and organizations, not to be legislated for all. I'm an athiest but I do not begrudge anyone's personal choice of a belief system. Even though I hate it and want to be left the {censored} alone I understand the Christian doctrine of wanting to reach me per se. When my supposedly free, democratic Govt. is trying to do just that through legislation that panders to a religous belief system that does not represent all then I'm ready to become a militant athiest and practice a little pre-emption of my own. Live and let live is a truly powerful idea. If only people weren't so insecure as to not be able to do so. P.S If you think all that's gone in the name of fighting terror isn't really about developing means of controlling the domestic population, you need to seriously think about it.
