Hollywood does the same thing, glorifies it in fact. So though doth protest too much.
Ah, but you're the "family values", "Christian", self-proclaimed moral people. So you using Hollywood as the excuse to justify your own depravity doesn't really work here. Nothing Hollywood did caused Moore to pursue these girls. He did that with guidance from The Bible.
When i went to high school in the late 80's early 90's plenty of girls 16-18 were picked up by guys in their late 20's, maybe 30's. I thought it sucked then, as they usually took the best looking ones out of the mix, but there was nothing "wrong" about it.
Well, firstly anecdotes don't mean anything to me. Secondly, just because you didn't see anything wrong with it, doesn't mean there's nothing wrong with it.
Leonardo Dicaprio keeps aging, and yet the girls he dates remains in the same range, 19-24 I'd say.
But they're adults. That's the difference. If Moore was dating women in his 20's as a man in his 30's (or even college girls), I wouldn't have an issue with it. But this guy was lurking around
high school football games, grooming girls in
high school civics classes, and spotting them in places like
custody hearings. He was completely using his station and status to groom high schoolers. That's ick. All sort of ick.
