The entire country is talking about the film Brokeback Mountain and it has made no tiny stir. On a Sun. morning TV editorial Charles Osgood indicated that Hollywood isn’t tying to put forth a gay liberal agenda but rather are interested only in the base line money. 

Although not inferred, it sounded like capturing the minds of adults or poisoning the minds of our youth was simply an incidental that happened on the way to the bank. For over thirty years I have warned that it is not just what we see on films that will influence us. Each film has a philosophy attached to it whether it was intended or not. 

Sex, violence and profanity are blaringly obvious but subtle philosophies are not. Today the philosophies are becoming more blatant and are far less refined. for ticket office money isn’t all that fuels this raw open ended sort of expression in the film industry. The mention of any sort of control [ even self control ] is had a meeting with cries of violated first amendment rights and the old liberty of expression hype. It may appear a bit over used but remains true nevertheless that Hollywood hasn’t troubled to discern the difference between liberty and license. 

A recent poll discovered that only one out of a thousand US citizens knows all of the rights our constitution makes provision for them. Roughly the poll declared that most people can name only one of our constitutional rights. Contrasted with that fact, it was discovered the the same folks could name three or more of the characters in the Television animated sitcom, The Simpsons. The bottom line says that flick makers know what their rights are but the flick viewing public either doesn’t have a clue or they just don’t care. Anyone that thinks TV and Films don’t influence our society has to be living in another country. Yet even that is not true. 

Another poll recently discovered that one of the reasons that pretty much every major country worldwide hates Yanks is because of the film industry. All they know about America is what they see in the movies. Immorality, harebrained love, rebellion, crime, gay cowboys and general mayhem is all they see. Any country making an attempt to keep order and develop would naturally reject this sort of example and that is exactly what they do. 

Could we get Hollywood’s attention on this, not so far but perhaps we could catch them on the way to the bank and tell them. It is estimated that Americans will spend fifteen years on average of their whole lives watching Television and Films . Maybe it’s not reasonable to think John Q TV watching public is going to take any time out of their fifteen years to snatch some Hollywood producers on their way to the bank. Perhaps they could protest a bit during the commercials which comprise about five of the fifteen years of their Television and picture watching lives. Actors and others in the flick industry are paid giant sums of cash to do and say things most Americans don’t believe believe should ever be seen or said. Are they showing us our mind, or is art coaxing life rather than imitating it. I suspect when actors or thespians are offered tiny fortunes to behave and talk badly they must think they are living right. They too possibly giggle all the way to the bank. Most US people don’t act like actors but Hollywood can afford to make them act any way they choose. It all seems Ok if the end [ the trip to the bank ] appears to justify the means. Some Yankees are a bit sick of Hollywood suggesting how to live instead of depicting how they actually live. The Bible isn’t sick of anything except has a lot to claim about how sick human behavior can become. Maybe it’s best recounted by the bible regardless of if Hollywood is listening or not. There is a way which seemeth right unto a man, but the end thereof are the ways of death. Proverbs 14:12
