Damasa and mad max have a good point. I hadn't considered the video in context. I definitely saw holocaust footga ein high school that was very gruesome.

I guess people are going nuts because its so current.

Sex and teenage pregnancy, drug use and alcohol abuse and other problems like depression that many highschool aged people encounter.

I remember watching many videos in my history classes that were very graphic and the teacher would always warn us about what was coming and if people didn't want to stay and watch, they were allowed to leave. If we can show a woman giving birth in health classes, I don't see a problem with show the Nick Berg video. Oh, but showing birth is education....yet, so is the Nick Berg video, it shows us that the world is a sick, sick place.

In any event, unite the Fundies!
