Their followers have been raised, brainwashed, and taught that 'following' is their only avenue to salvation. Props to the few that learn to think on their own and make their own interpretations. Again, it's not the religion, it's the skewed interpretations built around selfishness and greed.

Religion and Skins in the same topic. That's a new one.

We will disagree on this...I think religion is the catalyst for all of the ills of society starting with Adam and Eve and specifically the driving force behind the Skins Controversy in the US....I believe it is the direct answer to the question someone poised that I highlighted. I was attempting to use humor in my answer but I am serious about the answer as well.

The people following the preachers who interpret the nonsense can't take all the responsibility either...take a quick look at the book they are interpreting...

On Punishing ‘Immorality’

Leviticus 20:9
If anyone curses his father or mother, he must be put to death. YIKES!

20:10 If a man commits adultery with another man’s wife—with the wife of his neighbor—both the adulterer and the adulteress must be put to death. YIKES
!
20:13 If a man lies with a man as one lies with a woman, both of them have done what is detestable. They must be put to death. YIKES!

Deuteronomy 22:20-1 If, however, the charge is true and no proof of the girl’s virginity can be found, she shall be brought to the door of her father’s house and there the men of her town shall stone her to death. She has done a disgraceful thing in Israel by being promiscuous while still in her father’s house. YIKES

Exodus 35:2 For six days, work is to be done, but the seventh day shall be your holy day, a Sabbath of rest to the LORD. Whoever does any work on it must be put to death.
On Destroying Other People YIKES

Deuteronomy 7:1-2 When the Lord your God brings you into the land you are entering to possess and drives out before you many nations . . . then you must destroy them totally. Make no treaty with them, and show them no mercy. YIKES

20:10-17 When you march up to attack a city, make its people an offer of peace. If they accept and open their gates, all the people in it shall be subject to forced labor and shall work for you. If they refuse to make peace and they engage you in battle, lay siege to that city. When the Lord your God delivers it into your hand, put to the sword all the men in it. As for the women, the children, the livestock and everything else in the city, you may take these as plunder for yourselves. . . . This is how you are to treat all the cities that are at a distance from you and do not belong to the nations nearby.

However, in the cities of the nations the Lord your God is giving you as an inheritance, do not leave alive anything that breathes. Completely destroy them—the Hittites, Amorites, Canaanites, Perizzites, Hivites and Jebusites—as the Lord your God has commanded you.


On the Evil of Biblical Law

Ezekiel 20:25-26 I also gave them over to statutes that were not good and laws they could not live by; I let them become defiled through their gifts—the sacrifice of every firstborn—that I might fill them with horror so they would know that I am the LORD.

On Slavery & Subjugation of Women

Ephesians 5:22-24 Wives, submit to your husbands as to the Lord. For the husband is the head of the wife as Christ is the head of the church, his body, of which he is the Savior. Now as the church submits to Christ, so also wives should submit to their husbands in everything.

Exodus 21:20-21 If a man beats his male or female slave with a rod and the slave dies as a direct result, he must be punished, but he is not to be punished if the slave gets up after a day or two, since the slave is his property.

1 Peter 2:13 Submit yourselves for the Lord’s sake to every authority instituted among men.

2:18 Slaves, submit yourselves to your masters with all respect, not only to those who are good and considerate, but also to those who are harsh.

Leviticus 25:44-45
Your male and female slaves are to come from the nations around you; from them you may buy slaves. You may also buy some of the temporary residents living among you and members of their clans born in your country, and they will become your property.
Jesus, on His Second Coming

Matthew 24:29-34
[T]he sun will be darkened, and the moon will not give its light; the stars will fall from the sky, and the heavenly bodies will be shaken. . . . They will see the Son of Man coming on the clouds of the sky, with power and great glory. . . . I tell you the truth, this generation will certainly not pass away until all these things have happened. [Emphasis added.]
16:27-28
For the Son of Man is going to come in his Father’s glory with his angels, and then he will reward each person according to what he has done. I tell you the truth, some who are standing here will not taste death before they see the Son of Man coming in his kingdom.

I didn't think it was that bad but than again I haven't seen the first 2 seasons but I plan to. I found skins in season 3 after I watched Cook's episode, he pretty much sold me on Skins.

How's it's been in Canada...cold...mostly.

i don't know how i feel about season 5 yet but you can stream it online from different sites like tv-links or project free tv. just search "watch skins free online" and you can eventually figure out which links will work for you. I don't think i'll be watching the mtv version...

Reagan, Religion, Falwell, Religion, Moral "Values", Religion, Control, Religion...

did I mention religion?:biggrin:


I don't think it is hyper sensitivity as much as it is everybody thinks they need to share their opinions. When you say "Reagan, Religion, Falwell, Religion, Moral "Values", Religion, Control, Religion... did I mention religion", you are talking about a small segment that thinks it needs to be very loud about everything they don't like.
