Hollywood filmmakers want you to believe that greed is good, premarital and homosexual relations are all right, or “politically correct.” Other obvious messages include “The end justifies the means,” “If it feels good, do it” and “It’s all right if it doesn’t hurt anyone.” Basically, this is the entire spectrum of the Humanist movement that claims the individual is the center of the universe, which is nothing more than a philosophy of selfishness and self-indulgence.
