I don't look to Hollywood for my values or moral guidance; I do look to them for an escape of the day to day and entertainment. Admittedly, as a conservative both politically and culturally I find that the movies I am willing to spend the amount of money a ticket and the requisite popcorn and cherry coke run are few and far between but I have no grudge on Hollywood per say except for Michael Moore but then he doesn't actually count as Hollywood. 

Whatever happened to personal choice? I don't need conservative pundits to tell me what I should or shouldn't do anymore than I need Hollywood to. There is a God given thing called free agency, will or choice whatever your religious bent chooses to call it. It is the right and dare I say responsibility that each of us has to make our own choices with the information we have at the time and then freely accept the consequences of those choices. So I go to movies and on some occasions much to the chagrin of my religious leaders I even see an "R" rated movie but again they are few and far between because for the most part I don't want my mind or soul polluted with that content. I don't order porn but I won't stop try to block anyone else from accessing it unless in the public library where children may have access to it or access to it or access would violate parole (yes, I believe that sexual deviants such as rapists, pedophiles etc should not be able to access the fuel of their deviance).  Similarly, I turn off Britney Spears' "3" an ode to threesomes when it comes on the radio but I vehemently support the freedom of all to listen to whatever content on the radio they wish -- if the Freedom Doctrine is passed choice is taken away from you -- not just the choice to listen to something but soon the choice not to as well. 

Conservatives can't have it both ways ... you can't demand the freedom to have your perspective heard while drowning out the opposition to do so makes you just as hypocritical as the far left. True freedom means that you use your God given will and brain to make choices for yourself and your children but not for the rest of society. 

You have the right to turn off or not see anything you like. Admittedly it is dangerous to close your eyes when driving down the freeway to avoid some billboards and I don't recommend doing so or even walking through a mall past A&F (Abercrombie & Fitch) which is known for peddling immodest and downright tasteless clothing that advertises everything from threesomes to porn targeting your tweens and teens; but you have the freedom not to patronize them, to write to their HQ and tell them your feelings and certainly to avoid their website.  

Cherish to freedom to refuse as much as to choose. My mother, reminded us as we would walk out the door "remember who you are and what you stand for" she always reminded us that we had honor and that as Christians and Conservatives we had to live in the world but we didn't have to be part of it -- we had daily opportunities to set a good example or to take the easy route and fall into step with the world. We had a framed statement by our door; one that I have as well, it says "Return with Honor" the meaning come  to both your earthly and heavenly home with honor not shame for the choices made day to day and in this life. 

Choice and Accountability my friends is the most precious thing we have been given. Unfortunately in today's world there is more emphasis on choice and less on accountability just as there is more on rights and less on responsibility but neither the government, nor Hollywood is primarily responsible for how you or your children respond to this message -- you as individuals and parents are responsible for your actions and to teach your children the values you want them to hold on to -- don't blame society if they don't -- look in the mirror at what kind of an example you are. 

The people I look up to most are not those who were in picket lines or rallies taking up this or that cause; my heroes and heroines are people who lived their lives according to the dictates of their conscience they weren't afraid to make their views known but they never tried to curtail anyone else’s' freedom to partake.
