[Sex] Post Hoc, Ergo Propter Hoc

According to the BBC, Generation Life, "a group of virgins and renewed virgins," will picket screenings of Kinsey, the biopic starring Liam Neeson. According to a review published in Plugged In Online (an extension of the Rev. James Dobson):

"The entire movie is saturated in sex.....Kinsey and assistant Clyde Martin [Peter Sarsgaard] engage in a homosexual kiss and then embrace passionately before the camera cuts away. " [There is apparently full frontal male nudity — Sarsgaard and perhaps others — and masturbation is viewed in a positive light.]

"Two men engage in a fistfight."

"Several uses of 'h---,' once in a theological context. 'D--n' also makes several appearances. God’s name is abused about five times."

"Several characters smoke, and social drinking takes place at a party. One scene is set in a gay bar."

According to Dobson, Kinsey has a great deal to answer for:

School Teachers Rate Top Disciplinary Problems
  • 1940 (A few years before Kinsey's books were published): Talking out of turn, Chewing gum, Making noise, Running in the halls, Cutting in line, Dress-code violations, Littering

  • 1990 (A generation after Kinsey's books were published): Drug abuse, Alcohol use, Pregnancy, Suicide, Rape, Robbery, Assault
