Between [livejournal.com profile] naamah_darling and [livejournal.com profile] ms_daisy_cutter, I'm swearing more, and more floridly, than ever before.

For example: in a recent conversation, I referred to someone as "that walking polyp shat from the colon of a leprotic demon".

In fairness, I was talking about Tim LaHaye, right-wing godbag preacher and author of the "Left Behind" series of toilet paper.

But still...

I think my whole point was that when I was a Bible thumper, that was back in the late 80's. So using media in various forms to scare the pants off of church members is nothing new.

That said, there's an interesting movie called "The Wave" which is based on a real life incident in the 60's (or was it the 70's?). Anyway, this teacher in California runs an experiment with his history students that parallels the brainwashing of the Nazis during pre-WWII Germany (and during the war, too). Similar conclusions can be drawn about religion, our own military, etc. Very thought-provoking movie.
