Especially the claim that a “Harvard educated expert child development psychologist” agrees with him “that it would be unusual for even a 16 year old to be able to fully separate fantasy from reality”. :rolleyes:

So Carder objects to all the female nudity, but he complains about the nude male body parts obstructed by shadow 😕

Ohhh…now I get it.

I like how “making out” is under his list of Sexual Immorality. hee hee.

And now I really want to see Sin City for some reason. All that sinning is right up my alley. 😃

If you think **that’s** bad, I’d like to point out that CAP Alert has taken points off of movies featuring **Jesus drinking wine at the Last Supper!** I sent Mr. Carder an E-Mail asking him why he takes points off for alcohol when Jesus drank it. He replied that drinking is not a sin, but drinking to excess is. (Of course, that doesn’t explain why he takes off points for people **holding** glasses of wine.) He went on to say that he’s not really making any judgments; he’s just showing people what’s in the movie. (“Offense to God” is not a judgment?)
