And to teach the child that a person of faith from any religion is a 'god damned' anything is discriminatory. There is NO good in that presentation. Even the message itself is suggesting oppression of religious expression.
I get the feeling you dont have any children. That live with you. | ||||

I don't think that that kid is going to suffer harm because she did that video, it was a promo for a band. It's really not that serious, and it's not like an organization is using that to promote their point of view, a band is using it to sell records. So if you don't like it, don't buy the records.

And bands are always spitting their political views out there.

| This reminds me a lot of those N. Korea and Hezbollah videos where they slowly indoctrinate the children into their hate propaganda. This kid has no idea what she's saying, but in 10 years of this upbringing what do you think her political outlook is going to be? It's a shame people use their children as political pawns to pass on their hatred. | ||||

Strange how you would diffuse the example into such simplistic means. | ||||

Sounds like blind ignorance across the board to me (and possible hate), and if you've ever talked to some fundamentalist protestant about the Crusades/Inquisition, you'd see definite hate as well That's just between Christians, I don't have enough time to sit here and list what many Christians think of those who don't believe Jesus Christ is their personal saviour | ||||

Having a child say 'god damned' hardly qualifies as emotional damage. I think the issues many people here are REALLY having with this video stem from the monologue bashing right-wing social policy.

| Why are the Godless liberals so offended when the Christians kill the Muslims? Seems to me they win either way- religious people and religion are dying by the sword. Sooner or later there won't be enough of those 'religious nuts' to be of any harm to anyone, and the world will be better off... right? | ||||

| Someone in another forum said: Dude, it was supposed to be a fucking joke. It was an ad for a band called "the Bastard Fairies". I bet her parents didn't put her up to it to make a statement but rather for some fucking money. Shit, I'd dump a tub of astro-glide on my kid if it paid well enough. If that's the case, then I don't think it's a very big deal. It's no different than being the parents of a child actor. | ||||
