Oui. Glenethor does have a point. It's absurd, in my opinion, that people DO get paid for such things. It's all in the money, and, in connecting the previous thoughts, money can make people ignorant.<P>But let me just vent...<BR>Back when Harry Potter was gaining so much popularity, a lot of critics would say that Harry Potter is Satanic, and not suitable for children to read. Well, if HP IS not good for my kids to read (whenever I'll have them), then I'll not let them read the bible either, which has more controversial plotlines in comparison to HP or LotR.<BR>In light of that and LotR, someone I know does not want to watch LotR (can't blame her or force her, anyway) because of all the 'wizards' and 'elves,' and most especially the balrogs (if she gets to see them); and her personal 'boycott' (though her views are shared by a few others) is a 'christian' one. <BR>Well, I'M a christian, but I'm open a lot of things...I'll just not let IGNORANCE get the best of me.<P>So there.
