Sex and Violence

Sex and Violence

With all the recent shootings and murders here in Indianapolis I had point to a couple of quick studies on sex and violence. One study found that teens with sexually explicit music on their ipods are more likely to have sex and those who watch wrestling are likely to engage in violence.

I have never been one to buy the fact that violence in the media causes violence in society, per se. I do believe that children are like sponges, they absorb whatever is around them. If you fill a kid’s head with positive values and good citizenship you’ll finish up with a normal human being.

In other words, it’s the PARENTS!!!!

What a concept.

    I am thinking about the positive values, what about those folks like Enrons executives that stole hard working folks (probably some parents with positive values also) pensions.

    Do you think these executive types were raised in high crime areas, or their parents did not instill positive values in these folks? Do no harm, is a choice, and does not depend on good or bad parents, but a decision made within yourself in which you have to live with, free-will.

    If teens with sexually explicit music on IPODS are more likely to have sex, and teens who watch wrestling are more likely to be violent, what can we expect from teens who watch Pat Bauer?
