And then got trumped on biblical knowledge by a jewish comedian. I'd say that's pretending quite a bit.That wasn't him. That was Don Evans.
Wash: Don't fall asleep now. Sleepiness is weakness of character. Ask anyone. You're acting captain. Know what happens you fall asleep now? Zoe: Jayne slits my throat, and takes over. Wash: That's right. Zoe: And we can't stop it.

Spike's Bitches 26: Damn right I'm impure!
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

I think it's a feeling that popular culture is out of control combined with publicized court cases about taking down religious symbols in public places that causes that.
I suspect as much as well. However, I vehemently disagree with the notion that popular culture is either out of control or inescapable. Hell, I can go days without being exposed to popular culture just by leaving the TV off.
And, while I understand that some people might see forced removal of religious symbols as another sign of the End Times, I don't understand why those same people can't see that those same displays left in place are examples of their religious beliefs getting all up in my business. I don't have to watch TV, but on occasion I do have to go to the courthouse.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

You wouldn't if you just accepted Jesus, Sean.

I'm not familiar with this "TV off" notion you speak of.

Always Anti-fascist!
But you know, Rachel on "Friends" only went to the *toilet* twice in ten seasons too. There are a lot of things about life TV doesn't show.

It's what you do when you realize that the kids aren't actually watching Barney.
Funny thing. My son wanted to watch our "Magic School Bus" DVD, but my daughter complained loudly. "That's a baby show! I want to watch Barney!" Probably only funny to parents.

I'd accept Jesus more if he would keep kicking off his sandals and putting his stanky feet up on my coffee table every time He came over.

They say there's a button on the TV that accomplishes this. I don't believe it because hello..... the buttons are all on the remote....

(Actually, I was in a log cabin in the middle of the Canadian woods at the time, so even though we lost power too, it didn't matter so much because, log cabin in the middle of the woods. We had hamburgers on the grill and listened to the radio outside. It was all very 1950's.)
