CLANNAD: A Christian-friendly anime?

Apparently a friend of this conservative has managed to convince him to watch CLANNAD on the grounds that this anime spreads family values and thus may be relevant to Christianity.

I don't want to spoil the party for conservatives but I'll say it clear and say it LOUD..

NO. ANIME AND JAPANESE VISUAL CULTURE IN GENERAL IS NOT FOR CONSERVATIVES WHO WANT TO BE STUCK WITH THEIR OLD VALUES AND GET ERADICATED BY THE ZERG (Protoss Conclave anyone?).

So errr... if any conservative bloggers are reading this I suggest you keep anime out of your blogs as anime isn't very conservative. CLANNAD has some very suggestive sexuality themes, which most normal people find funny. But the average narrow-minded conservative will find it offensive.

This is why J-entertainment kicks ass. Japanese entertainment takes the deepness of a culture like the Chinese culture and throws out the communist values, and also isn't limited by American conservative movements putting a cap on the level of violence or extremism in movies and TV series you see in Singapore.

Oh and yes, I'm very much liberalist. Liberalism for the fucking win. If you need convincing just look at this post, or just surf around my blog in general. In fact I would go so far as to say I'm a radical liberalist.

I've recently picked up the Da Vinci Code. Yes, no matter how good anime, manga or light novels are, the conventional novel is still an irreplaceable form of entertainment. But I'll discuss that in another blog post.

The Da Vinci Code is a very liberalist novel that challenges convention and tradition. Towards the end of the novel it argues that the reason for religion is because men cannot think for themslves in the past. However, in this new age of expanded knowledge and pseudo-religion, we men can in fact judge for ourselves what is right and wrong. Thus the role of religion diminishes. Those who have not read DVC may want to check it out as it is worth your time.

So to any conservatives out there, I recommend y'all to be more open minded and experience some Japanese visual culture. Otherwise, keep J-visual culture outta your blogs. Its for your own good.

Also, another conservative has made a post on how anime encourages violence which drew close to a thousand comments. Precisely because Seinen anime is geared towards an 18+ mature (non-conservative) male audience. Do NOT show Seinen anime to your younger cousins damnit!!!

Can you imagine if this guy saw other Seinen stuff like Gunslinger Girl? OMGWTFBBQ YOUNG GIRLS KILLING PEOPLE WITH GUNS!!! THIS IS FILTHY JAPANESE TRASH!! JAPAN WORSHIPS SATAN!!!! ALL YOUR FILTHY YEN CAN BURN FOR ALL I CARE!!!

So the most important question is: Have you succumbed to conservatism or are you embracing liberal thought?
