O.K. you could take my whole church arument completely out of the equation. What would you be left with?

You'd still be left with the fact that during the 1980's, advertisers began emphasizing sex much more heavily to make their product appealing.

I throw church into the argument, because the church and the government are in cahoots. It doesn't matter whether you like to admit it or not. They have the big time evangelists of the day-the Jimmy Swaggerts, the Jerry Falwells-these are the people that Christians listen to. It's not without exception, but for the most part, a lot of the preachers in churches try to mimick in some ways these well known preachers, through message and attitude. This is where many Christians get their idea of living ethically - from the well known evangelists. So, if they see Falwell on T.V. talking about how ***s are going to hell, they believe it, and the more extremist ones expect their own preacher to embody those sentiments.
