entertainment: Son of a Preacher Man

I'm all for ensuring children grow up to become moral adults who know right from wrong. But I am getting a tad annoyed by all the preaching and 'high horsery' that is so prevalent on TV and film at the moment.

At the start of every Star Wars: The Clone Wars episode they flash up some moral nonsense along the lines of

"You hold onto friends by keeping your heart a little softer than your head."[src]

How on earth is a 4 year old even going to understand that anyway? I'm not even sure I do. We've got to a point where toddlers are being versed in Plato to teach them that stealing is wrong. All I needed was Postman Pat not stealing the post, now he flies around in his Royal Mail issued Helicopter, or his Royal Mail Hovercraft. How many DVDs did he pilfer to pay for that I ask you?

I've just put my down payment on a theguywhomoanscalledmatthew branded Stealth Bomber.
