Sex, Drugs & Video Games: Why Our College Are Kids Failing At Life

By any given standard, America’s college students are dangerously close to gambling away the future of this country. They are failing the rigors of solid academic programs, they are failing to achieve decency and goodness in themselves, they are failing to find gainful employment once they graduate and overall, they are failing at life. This may seem a bit harsh, but when you compare today’s college children with those principled and hardworking youths of the past, the diagnosis is painfully necessary.
Parents and other adults have invested trillions of dollars and sacrificed incredible hours to make our children the best Americans conceivable. But somehow, despite our noblest intentions, today’s youths have been lured off track. Rampant expressions of sexuality, overindulgence in self-masturbation, widespread use of addictive marijuana and other drugs, and the new health threat of obsessive video gaming is pushing America’s youngest citizens past the point of no return.
We expect our institutions of higher learning to direct and nurture the moral growth of our youth. Only a few decades ago, dormitories had faculty members living on each floor. There were counselors, resident advisors and helpful professors on hand. Today, school administrators, campus priests and other elders have become conspicuously absent from the daily lives of our kids. They’re off writing books, attending pointless conferences or hiding from fear of lawsuits. Most of them don’t have a clue what happens behind closed dorm room doors, nor do they care. On the flip side, youth culture has become so insular and intense; adults are purposely left out of what’s happening in young people’s secret lives.

CAMPUS SEXUALITY: A DEAD END STREET
What our kids are doing in their college dormrooms is truly dangerous. The majority of children who experiment with homosexuality, oral sex, group sex or electronic sexual devices do so for the first time while at college. Kids have taken to calling this new trend of unbridled fornication, “hookup culture,” which entails casual hardcore sex acts with neither love nor remorse, between groups, same sexes and various other combinations in libraries, bathrooms, alleyways and parks (evidence here and here). With campus homosexual activist organizationss and boys showering together in very close quarters, there are too many temptations for the curious struggling with relentless physical needs. Teachers often lead these gay school groups, and sadly this is one of the few times your boys will interact with their elders while on campus. It also puts these lascivious old men obsessed with their homosexuality in dangerous proximity to our beautiful offspring. “Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender Alliance,” clubs are often federally and state-funded despite this being an incredible affront to the Christian taxpayers of this country. No wonder so many of our once hopeful youngsters become politically liberal and develop a fascination with older, hairy authoritative “top” men once they leave campus.
Reckless, nonstop dorm masturbation is another major college issue. Without mothers around to patrol a young man’s bedroom and check their bedsheets, children find their bodies to be fascinating playgrounds for their curious, restless hands. It can also lead to a dangerous condition know as Traumatic Masturbatory Syndrome (read more here). The huge amount of self-gratification in schools is staggering and the quick availability of Internet pornography only makes it worse (vital studies here and here). Moms, do you wonder why when you call your son at school he always sounds groggy? Or why when he comes home for the holidays he drops off a saggy, sour bag of laundry and then shuts himself off in his room for hours? His disgusting habit has become an addiction so bad it’s keeping him from a good night’s rest (evidence here). And it’s not helping your children’s grades any. Masturbation is academic procrastination. It is immoral desecration. And it is fruitless narcissism. Why not make a surprise visit to your child’s room with a board game next time he’s home to prevent him from getting too carried away with himself?

ARE YOUR KIDS TOO STONED TO STUDY?
Marijuana! What an awful thing. News reports have stated that the major Mexican and Columbian drug cartels have hired the world’s top Chinese scientists to make modern day “mary jane” a hundred times more potent than it was in the 1960s (see a report here). It’s about as hardcore as cocaine, tequila and heroin mixed together. The old cliché of the pot puffer being lazy and harmless is shamefully outdated. Today’s stoner is an agitated radical, more likely to jump out a window to join a liberal protest march than to sleep on the couch watching Bugs Bunny. The crazed high one gets from a marijuana cigarette is directly connected to the rise in conspiracy theories all over the internet. “George Bush Invaded Iraq For Oil” is a classic drug-inspired pipe dream that college freaks have spread all over the planet, to the genuine harm of American foreign interests.
The new era of childhood compulsive narcotic paranoia is epic and epidemic (evidence). Without drug testing, most parents will never know the extent of the problem with certainty. School administrators have long turned a blind eye to campus dealers, who are called via pagers and arrive as sweaty bike messengers (additionally dangerous, they use this time to scope out our children’s rooms for a future rape or burglary potential). And when your son or daughter smokes up this stinky buddy of theirs, they find solace in the suicidal music of renowned hedonists like Phish, Amy Winehouse and ColdPlay. Would anyone really enjoy these deathbed jingles if they were sober? Of course not, but it has become the psychedelic soundtrack of their ludicrous, imaginary lives.

VIDEO GAME WINNERS, LIFE LOSERS
We have already seen that the new trend of video gaming addiction is a serious health risk. We’ve proven that it’s eating away at the fabric that once made U.S. high schools the very best in the world. Christwire’s recent investigative report, “Is Video Gaming A Threat To America’s High School Jock Culture?” opened many eyes and had the liberal youth brigade quaking in their Doc Martens. But this enormous danger is multiplied many times over by the college environment. Dorm rooms are like bacteria dishes where crueler and more virulent microorganisms are constantly introduced to breed in a frothy frenzy of poor judgment.
When video gaming is added to a culture of persistent sexual experimentation in a peer group of sex radicals fueled by vast amounts of mind-altering narcotics, reality is the big loser. One scientific report noted, “Young adults who played video games daily reported smoking pot almost twice as often as occasional players, and three times as often as those who never play.” They also had alcohol problems and very poor relationships with their parents (evidence here). Studies have shown that 70% of college kids admit that video gaming keeps them from homework and additional research proves that simply rooming with a gamer drastically lowers a student’s GPA (evidence here and here). Addiction to gaming is widespread and pernicious (research evidence here and here and here).
Video games like Gangstar, Halo and Metal Gear Solid are turning our clean-cut college children into drug addicted bisexual libertines who live in a nasty world of imaginary radical terrorists (Perfect Dark), sadistic nymphos (Soul Calibur) or hero athletes (Pro Skater). Your children have plugged their brains and your credit cards into video game consoles for constant play and have become so whacked out they sometimes die from lack of food and water (horrible World of Warcraft story here). Morality has no implications in this flat screen fantasia. Sharp colors and quick movement like you find in Grand Theft Auto make these couch potatoes feel as if they’re really moving through life at a brisk pace while in reality growing obese. It makes them feel important, as if they’re achieving something, while their textbooks sit unopened on nearby desks. It sucks up hours upon hours when these children could be learning business or engineering. Instead of American history, they memorize the satanic rites of Resident Evil, thrill in emotional suffering with Silent Hill or train to be Columbine-style murderers with Dead Space Extraction. Instead of ethics, they dive into a world of incredible profanity with games like House of the Dead, outrageous sexual perversion in Max Payne and Chains of Olympus and create a completely sad escapist lives for themselves in the Sims.

All this indoor activity deprives America’s students of the chance to meet worthwhile peers– fellow athletes and the children of important people for instance. Universities are so essential for networking. It’s terribly necessary for the future careers of our kids to get in the good graces of their socially-connected and wealthier friends. Also, outside social interactions helps sheltered young people to speak up, speak clearly and be succinct. Sports participation, once the fantastic foundation of any advanced academic experience, is at an all-time low. It used to be the place you formed life-long friendships– whether on the track team or the golf course, rowing down a river or wrestling on a basement mat. Devotion to sculpting and caring for your body as you mature is vital for your future health. It shows the world that you respect yourself as a temple of goodness and muscles. And it’s the best way to make close contact with the rigorous and strong amongst us. The real leaders of the future will be found sweating from a long hard afternoon next to you in a dimly lit college locker room. We are all humbled and equal in our small white towels, lining up for a relieving, hot shower.
A note for my young readers: The foundation of modern morality so necessary for the next generation to lead is not something you children will get sucking on the end of a filthy bong while yanking a joystick around the streets of San Andreas, gunning down minorities and looking for “Hot Coffee” as some mysterious classmate from Art History oils your tensed-up pecs.* This might seem fun now, but it’s truly destroying your soul.
* That’s a scene from Grand Theft Auto.
A RADICAL APPROACH TO INTERNET-AGE PARENTING
- Parents: It’s your incredibly hard-won money that you have earned from slaving away in difficult jobs that is paying for your child’s fun, four-year stay on a college campus, so don’t feel guilty about taking a decisive and active role in the majors and classes they chose. You have every right imaginable to be involved! You’re also paying their dorm fees and this entitles you to drop in whenever you want to check up on your investment in your kids. Bring a six pack of soda, they’ll be happy you to see you!
- Tell your children that if they truly love you, they will submit to regular drug testing. If they’re clean and pure, why should they care at all? Only drug users will say it’s an invasion of their privacy. This is a common refrain among addicts.
- Absolutely monitor your child’s internet use! Let them know about anything in their web history you find objectionable. Talk them through any odd sexual urges you see displayed on websites they click to.
- I know this is incredibly difficult, but it’s very important that you talk to your kids about masturbation. Just because it feels good, that doesn’t make it right. It makes young people sleepy and lazy and takes their mind off marriage.
- Show your children you love and care for them deeply and that you want only the very best for them. Explain that a moral and ethical education is far more important than trigonomics when it comes right down to it.

With the rising number of teenage drug addicts, the need for teen drug abuse treatment has become even more dire.

“self-masturbation”
That’s redundant, dude.
“widespread use of addictive marijuana and other drugs”
I’ve never smoked marijuana, but from what I’ve heard, it’s not addictive because it does not produce symptoms of withdrawal.
“and the new health threat of obsessive video gaming”
Video games aren’t at all new.
“Only a few decades ago, dormitories had faculty members living on each floor.”
We still have RAs, dude. I don’t think dormitories are allowed to go without at least one per floor.
“With campus homosexual activist organizationss and boys showering together in very close quarters”
Um, did you not mention in your sports article that you enjoyed the locker room fun during your high school jock years. Don’t jocks slap each other’s butts and shower together?
“Without mothers around to patrol a young man’s bedroom and check their bedsheets”
That is absolutely disgusting! What sort of mother checks her son’s bedsheets for semen??? Is that what your mother did to you? Is that why you’re so fucked up?? Because she would find dried semen on your bedsheets and hit you because of it? Would she lock you in the closet and make you read bible verses?
“It can also lead to a dangerous condition know as Traumatic Masturbatory Syndrome”
That only occurs in males, and it’s only a result of masturbating in a prone (face down) position. It’s highly avoidable.
“Or why when he comes home for the holidays he drops off a saggy, sour bag of laundry and then shuts himself off in his room for hours?”
Oh give me a fucking break! The reason behind a boy doing that is most likely that he doesn’t want to be home. My sister’s the same way. She’s a major bitch who doesn’t like her family, and spends hours in her room reading.
“Masturbation is academic procrastination.”
The average male ejaculates within a few minutes if he doesn’t have a partner to please (don’t quote me on that), and unlike women, most men cannot have multiple orgasms, so the whole act doesn’t take that much time. You also have to factor in the fact that nearly all college students have at least one roommate, so they need to ensure that they “finish” before their roommate gets back.
“Why not make a surprise visit to your child’s room with a board game next time he’s home to prevent him from getting too carried away with himself?”
Not only is that an invasion of privacy, but what sort of college-age boy is going to want to play a BOARD GAME, with his MOM, in his BEDROOM?
“Today’s stoner is an agitated radical, more likely to jump out a window to join a liberal protest march than to sleep on the couch watching Bugs Bunny.”
One of my roommates last year was a major pothead. Over the weekends when the rest of us went home, she would get all her friends and they would get high in the dorm room. They pretty much just ravaged our snack supplies and fell asleep.
“The crazed high one gets from a marijuana cigarette is directly connected to the rise in conspiracy theories all over the internet.”
Source?
“Christwire’s recent investigative report, “Is Video Gaming A Threat To America’s High School Jock Culture?” opened many eyes and had the liberal youth brigade quaking in their Doc Martens.”
1. YOU wrote that lameass article, asswipe.
2. You need to stop patting yourself on the back. I doubt that one single teenager was the least bit affected by that “article”.
“It’s terribly necessary for the future careers of our kids to get in the good graces of their socially-connected and wealthier friends.”
Oh, I see, so studying hard and getting good grades won’t get you anywhere unless you have rich connections?
“Bring a six pack of soda, they’ll be happy you to see you!”
You claim to know America’s youth so well, but this sentence proves that you don’t. The majority of college students don’t want unannounced visits (or even announced) visits from their parents. Although I personally love my parents and would love to see them during the week (although I don’t really need to, because I go home on the weekends), most college students don’t want to see their parents. My sister purposely went to school in D.C. for that reason. She’s an independent person, and does not appreciate seeing us. At all.
“Tell your children that if they truly love you, they will submit to regular drug testing.”
To which any reasonable kid would reply: “mom, if you truly love me, you’d respect me and believe me when I say that I’m not doing drugs. You’d also respect my privacy.”
“If they’re clean and pure, why should they care at all? Only drug users will say it’s an invasion of their privacy.”
Not true. I’ve never had to take a drug test, but when I went in for surgery at age 15, I had to have a pregnancy test. Although I wasn’t pregnant and I had never had sex, I still viewed it as an extreme invasion of privacy.
“Absolutely monitor your child’s internet use!”
Doing this will piss your child off to no end, and they might rebel in retaliation.
“It makes young people sleepy and lazy and takes their mind off marriage.”
Why should college students be thinking about marriage at all? College students should be focused on their classes.

Claire, I am a mother of 2 teenagers… and i have to take your side on this one… why? because I was a teenager once too, this is something some’ of this generation and older forget, that we were young too.
The fact that these kids are living life in college proves NOTHING of what their character is like or what they will amount to? flip… are you naive enough to think that kids in our day didn’t go to college and ‘piss away’ the college fund their parents worked 18 years to save for? come on buddy get a clue.
I know lots of people who went to school, partied it up, messed around, made mistakes, blah, blah blah… and now have great, well paying, meaningful jobs, are married have families and are great citizens. I also know people who studied their butts off in school, ‘played board games’, were the goody goodies through high school and college then were let loose in the real world and failed miserably, they have no or low paying jobs, divorced and taking care of 5 kids on a mcdonalds income.
As a Christian I really find this site very archaic in Christian thought… the very reason I back in my teens I took my own path…it wasn’t until I realized that being a Christian isn’t about judging or being judged that I came back to what i knew in my heart was right, but without the harsh rod and man made rules attached to it. No wonder there are so many athiests/agnostics out there…. they call Christians hypocrites for good reason.

Hello my friend Claire!
– Just because you’re not a pot smoker, doesn’t mean prove it’s not widespread on college campuses. This is a well known fact in fact.
– RAs are not the same as on site faculty adults. My point still holds very valid: there is too little adult supervision on college campuses.
– Teen masturbation is indeed disgusting but it is something many mothers work hard to prevent. If you ever submit to becoming a parent, maybe you’ll understand this is a responsibility for anyone with kids.
– “Traumatic Masturbatory Syndrome only occurs in males”. Of course it does, that’s why I mentioned it. I was not interested in female masturbation as you seem to be.
– The personal stories of your weird sister have no credence here. Simply heresay. Not admissable in court.
– “The average male ejaculates within a few minutes”. Oh golly! Where did you discover this “fact”? You’re way out of your depth here. And self gratification does cause fatigue and lack of focus.
– Colleges are places for networking. Any graduate will tell you this. Clearly you haven’t finished school so you don’t have a clue.
– Drug testing has saved many families. What are YOU afraid of???
Sorry to knock you down a notch, kiddo, but you deserved it!

“Hello my friend Claire!”
I’m not your friend, lardass.
“– Just because you’re not a pot smoker, doesn’t mean prove it’s not widespread on college campuses. This is a well known fact in fact.”
Nowhere did I say that because I don’t smoke pot it means that nobody on college campuses do. All I said was that although I don’t have firsthand experience with marijuana, I’ve heard that it is not addictive.
“there is too little adult supervision on college campuses.”
The majority of students on college campuses are 18 and over. So technically, college campuses are crawling with adults. Although I know that’s not what you mean by “adult”. By “adult”, you’re referring to someone who is not a student, who holds down a respectable job, and is most likely over the age of, say, 25. Well, sorry, but true adults don’t want to sleep on college campuses, especially if they have a spouse and children.
“– Teen masturbation is indeed disgusting but it is something many mothers work hard to prevent. If you ever submit to becoming a parent, maybe you’ll understand this is a responsibility for anyone with kids.”
No, what’s disgusting is any mother who checks her son’s bedsheets for semen. Masturbation is a private act that provides a teenager with harmless sexual relief. Would you rather teenagers be having sex instead?
“I was not interested in female masturbation as you seem to be.”
Well, gee, considering how I AM a female…
“– The personal stories of your weird sister have no credence here. Simply heresay. Not admissable in court.”
The point of my story was to show you that lack of interest of contact with parents does not necessarily mean that a kid is masturbating. Some teenagers simply have rotten personalities/temperaments.
“Oh golly! Where did you discover this “fact”? You’re way out of your depth here. And self gratification does cause fatigue and lack of focus.”
I learned it in sex-ed. Although I guess that you would know better than anyone else. Which hand do you use to jack off all the young boys you take with you to hike in the mountains? And yes, masturbation does cause fatigue, which is why some teens do it – so that they can actually sleep through the night for once. And masturbation has never caused me to lose my focus. I mean, sure, in the throes of orgasm I’m kind of on cloud 9, but after that I can resume my work.
“– Drug testing has saved many families. What are YOU afraid of???”
I’m not afraid of anything. I’m OFFENDED that someone would assume that I’m doing drugs. Besides, anybody who knows me well knows that, as someone with an anxiety/panic disorder, I wouldn’t be caught dead doing drugs due to the physical and mental sensations that they produce. Drugs and alcohol might also interfere with the medications that I am taking. Therefore, anyone who cares about me enough to know me well knows that I would never drink or take drugs.

Oh, and regarding the subject of advising mothers to randomly show up at their offsprings’ college: That is called being Overbearing. Do you REALLY want me to dredge-up the thousands of psychological journals and papers stating this is unhealthy behavior and is detrimental to the safe maturing of a child-to-adult? Do you REALLY want to be humiliated on your own site, Mr. Billings?

Before you start spewing forth more data, Mr. Billings, please make certain that whatever you reply with does not involve “overuse”, or a synonym of this word. ANYTHING taken in excess is potentially deadly.

- Pot is not addictive – it’s a fact of chemistry. Nicotine = addictive. Caffeine = addictive. Marijuana = not addictive.
- Masturbation takes minutes only and has been recommended as a cure for insomnia, since it increases endorphin levels and lowers stress.
- Video games are multi-million dollar business. I work in video games and make a decent living. I’m also a female. I know a lot of people who played video games in their youth and now make a lot of money because they did.
- Most campuses have multiple Christian organizations that are just as equally funded. “Non-Christian Taxpayers” have to pay for them.

Mr Billings, before you attack me let me just say I have a 3.8 GPA at a well known state school, I play on a varsity sports team and was a football captain in high school. Right now I’m majoring in Economics with a minor in American History and I am the first one in my family to go to college. I will most likely make more money when I graduate than my parents and hope to support them. Oh i almost forgot! I am a dedicated gamers, have been since age 13 and it’s helped me blow off steam when I need to, help me learn about technology, helped me make new friends and it’s an all around fun, harmless thing to do. I’m not a “murderer” or a lazy person.
You don’t seem to have any genuine insight into this subject. You don’t seem to know any gamers and you didn’t interview any for your article. It just seems like you through a lot of made up stuff together and then ended by saying video games ruin lives. Where is the proof? There is no connection between drug addiction and video gaming.

The level of profanity of your post reveals an incredibly troubled and immature mind. You have a lot of growing up to do, my child, and if your parents haven’t already told you this I will. This is not appropriate and you should really think twice about posting your internet threats. What you have done is both libelous and illegal.
Beyond that, I believe the bill you are referring to is one of those internet frauds. Regardless, I wholeheartedly support our Homeland Security programs and find it sad that you are too weak-minded to do the same. This country is defended by great and strong men in our military forces who are putting their lives at risk so wimpy little liberals like you can slime away their days with these types of internet lies. You are a shameful human being.

You can’t possibly be serious. You really think cherry picked statistics and non-representative samples/interviews are enough to qualify as persuasive investigative journalism? What you’ve written is an opinion piece, nothing more. The fact that you’re making a concerted effort to present it as “investigative journalism”, denigrating others who disagree with you is telling of a much deeper set of issues that, frankly, you’re probably never going to admit to, much less address, and is profoundly disingenuous. If your arguments are sound and persuasive, all you ever need to do is point back to your arguments. Your arguments are neither. By claiming that those who disagree with you are “immature kids who don’t respect their elders”, you’re appealing to a sense of authority that, frankly, doesn’t exist, and doesn’t make sense anymore. Respect for your elders is all well and good, but respect for sound principles, good ideas, and, above all, wisdom, is infinitely more valuable.
That said, since this is clearly an opinion piece, I’m going to present you with a few of my own opinions.
First of all, let’s talk about responsibility. You’re pointing fingers at this generation, tearing them down because the overall level of academic performance is declining. You also rip into those who do manage to graduate for not being able to get jobs when the country is in the worst recession we’ve seen since the Great Depression, and you place the blame squarely on the shoulders of their corrupt morals, their bleeding heart liberalism, and their shoddy work ethic. But, you conveniently ignore the fact that these kids are the children of *your* generation.
Remember, it’s your generation that designed our current educational system. It’s your generation’s parents who’ve raised this generations “failures at life”. It’s your generation’s “profit at all costs” attitude that has led to the current profound economic crisis we’re in, and it’s your generation that is going to be the first, the *first* generation since this nation was founded to leave their children with a poorer standard of living than they, themselves, enjoyed. Numbers 14:18, anyone? Remember, Luke 6:42, too? How about some personal responsibility? You really think that your generation has nothing to do with the fact that so many young people are floundering, clearly unprepared for life? You turn on the tv to raise your kids, thrust a video game controller into their hands because you’re too tired to spend time with them and it shuts them up, hallelujah, then you expect them to adopt your beliefs and values whole heartedly? (gotta put the bread on the table, after all. Need to make sure my kids have “a good life”. Never mind that you’re working non stop primarily because you’re paying off massive debt you accrued because you so wisely lived beyond your means most of your life. Your generation works hard because if you stop you’ll be buried by your own poor choices. Remember, it’s not our college students who are declaring bankruptcy en masse. It’s not our college students who are talking about pushing back the retirement age because they aren’t financially prepared to stop working. It’s not college students who are trying to keep up with the Jones, who are deeply and irrevocably in debt because of conspicuous consumption. College grads can’t find jobs because your generation can’t afford to give them up. Your generation of hard working, upstanding citizens has left this nation a heaping, steaming mess. Thanks for that.) Get real. The problems with this generation are largely the product of your generations mistakes, but you’re too busy pointing fingers at the uncouth influence of a corrupt society to recognize it. Parents have a more profound influence on their kids than video games, drugs, “hang out culture,” and promiscuous sex ever will.
Please, spare me the generational elitism. Do many of our students need to be more responsible? Absolutely. Is it going to happen? I doubt it. Is it because they are, ultimately, wastes of space caught up in an endless cycle of stimulation? Nope. It’s because they don’t see much of a future, and that lack of a long view is directly attributable to parents not being prescient enough to show them the vision or, even more importantly, good examples.
Teach your kids. Don’t micromanage their behavior. You can’t possibly expect them to be responsible if you don’t treat them like adults, and that means respecting their choices even if you don’t agree with them and are, in fact, abhorred by some of them.

Listen here hippie, first off marijuana is an illegal and dangerous drug. That’s a fact of law. You shouldn’t be smoking it or even possessing it. Secondly, we’re talking about kids here! They have fragile minds and their whole future ahead of them. I don’t think it’s fair that pushers push these narcotics on them, no matter who “impotent” you claim the drugs to be. Thirdly, read on:
“The average THC for tested marijuana during 2008 was 10.1 percent, according to the government, compared to 1983 when it was reportedly under 4 percent.”
That’s a rise of almost 300%!
“The stronger marijuana is of particular concern because high concentrations of THC have the opposite effect of low concentrations, officials say. In addition, while experienced marijuana users may limit their intake of potent marijuana, young and inexperienced users may not moderate their intake and possibly suffer from dysphoria, paranoia, irritability and other negative effects. ” — CNN, May 14, 2009
So I don’t know where you get YOUR “facts” but maybe a certain potent weed has muddied what’s left of your brain. You obviously haven’t picked up a newspaper since the 60s.

Mr. Billings,
I don’t understand how you claim that marijuana is as dangerous/hardcore as “cocaine, tequila and heroin mixed together?” I understand that it contains higher levels of TCH then in the past, but how does it compare to heroin and cocaine, let alone mixing them together? They are completely different drugs with different effects. Also, everyone should know that mixing drugs (and alcohol too) is the easiest way to overdose. Smoking excessive amounts of the most potent marijuana may give one a stomach ache, but they will not die.
I smoke marijuana about once a month, but I have NEVER felt the urge to have to smoke. I do not believe that marijuana is addictive. Just to let you know I am an honors student at UNH, I write for the school paper, play several intramural sports and I run a blog by myself. I also go to parties on weekends and play video games. I am not 21 and I drink alcohol. I still seem to be doing exceptionally well in all my classes and I take my newspaper assignments and blog very seriously. I guess you could say that I am very motivated.
Please respond to my above question, I would really appreciate the information.
Thank you.

I learned about the dangers of mixing drugs in high school health class. You can call me what ever you want (although shouldn’t you leave the judging to God?) but you still did not answer my question. So I will pose it to you again: How is marijuana considered to be as dangerous or hardcore as “cocaine, tequila and heroin mixed together?”
If I learned one thing from years of CCD and going to church it was that only God is allowed to judge. So will you please answer my question?
In my first post I never said that drugs are good or cool. I simply said that I have smoked pot before and I would not consider myself to be addicted. Whether you believe me or not isn’t my problem, I just ask that you respectfully answer my question. That is another thing I have learned, that God wants everyone to love and respect everyone else. Why don’t you show your readers some respect by answering their questions instead of judging and name calling them? I just want to know where you got your information for claiming pot to be equally hazardous as “cocaine, tequila and heroin mixed together.”

“Here are four common stimulants used at college:
Amphetamines, aka uppers, speed, bumble bees, black beauties, and pep pills can be taken orally, injected, snorted or smoked.
Methamphetamine is taken orally, snorted, injected or smoked. It is also sometimes referred to as: meth, crystal, crank, fire, ice, croak, crypto, glass and white cross.
Ecstasy or herbal ecstasy is considered a sexual stimulant and is commonly found at “raves” or large trance dance parties and taken in pill form. It’s also known on the streets as: XDC, Xphoria, X, Rave energy, or cloud 9, herbal X, sexstacy and Adam.
Cocaine, crack, codeine and V are all either, snorted, smoked, injected or taken orally. Cocaine or crack has also been known to be mixed among other drugs such as marijuana to create a substance called a “Primo”. Other names for cocaine or crack include: crank, snow and nose candy.
Hallucinogens such as LSD, PCP and mushrooms are all controlled substances. Most hallucinogens can be taken orally, snorted, smoked and even drunk in tea. Students abusing hallucinogens will display signs of very low motor function including but not limited to: droopy eyes, constant smacking of the lips, maintaining a sluggish gait and frequently nodding off. Additionally students report that they have frequent out of body experiences on the drug and often experience extreme panic attacks.
Finally, marijuana or Mary Jane, which is also referred to by nicknames such as chronic, blunt, weed, bud or herb is considered to be the second most widely used drug on college campuses. Aside from alcohol, nearly 65% of student drug abusers smoke or otherwise imbibe in marijuana. Marijuana can be mixed with other controlled substances also commonly used on college campus. For example, dipping the marijuana joint into PCP creates what is called on the streets a “A lovely” Or “lovely joint”. Commonly, marijuana is known to increase appetite causing what many refer to as the “munchies”. Additionally, students may have blood shot eyes, dry mouth, loss of coordination and short term memory loss just to name a few of the attending symptoms.”

The “evidence” that you have provided only serves to prove that you have lied throughout this sad attempt at information. The link provided as “evidence” that marijuana is “a hundred times more potent” actually plainly states that marijuana is only about “three times more potent than what their parents smoked”.

Honestly, you’re getting pretty worked up about some very insignificant stuff. I could go on about how masturbation is natural and actually keeps men’s minds off sex. I could talk about how more potent marijuana causes people to smoke less, lowering their exposure to lung disease and drug dealers. I could definitely deconstruct your points about video games, which are uniformly false.

First off, I’m from England. Second, I am attending university, and have been for slightly over a month now. Thirdly, I appreciate that there are some cultural differences between both of our higher education systems, but also many similarities, especially when it comes down to social activities.
I feel that the ideas put forward in this article misguided, and in some places, downright wrong. Yes, of course there is a drug problem at college, but I’m fairly sure there are problems everywhere in the world. You can imply that the moment a person attends university, they will start smoking marijuana.
The whole sex issue confused me. Yes, young people have sex, that’s a fairly well established fact, but as long as it is safe, what does it matter? Ignoring the issue of sexual promiscuity for a moment, the range of contraceptives avaliable ON CAMPUS mean that people are kept safe.
Masturbation, despite what you may think of it, is a biological reaction. This has been observed in nature. Take from that what you will.
Video games are not leading young people to violent acts, and if they are, so are movies, TV, the media in general, the internet and pretty much every other form of mass communication. The act of taking drugs/killing someone/having sex in a video game involves pressing buttons. This could not be more far removed from the real thing. Oh, and Resident Evil has nothing to do with Satanic rituals. It’s about biological engineering.
“don’t feel guilty about taking a decisive and active role in the majors and classes they chose. You have every right imaginable to be involved.”
Whilst you may have a right to be involved, you don’t have a single right to tell your “child” what they will be studying. I remind you that by this stage, your “child” would be an adult, and has the ability to make their own choices. Yes, you may well be paying for it, but that doesn’t grant you control over their education.
Monitoring internet use is a breach of privacy, especially considering that the person in question is again technically an adult. If the internet is being supplied by the university, it’s their job to monitor it. The police have no right to look at their internet history, unless you suspect them of illegal online activities.
And also, Halo making people bisexual? Really? It’s a game about defending the Earth from invading zealot xenophobic aliens, it’s hardly got a strong sexual message.

Your hazy British ethics have no legitimacy here, comrade. I have genuine moral AND scientific proof of the violent dangers of video games. Science and experience has proven this again and again, despite what you apologists say with your misinformation campaigns. Secondly, you just started off college? You must be 17 or 18? What in the world do you know about life? You spent the entirety of it living off your parent’s hard work and money! You will develop your morals once you’ve had to fend for yourself a little. Don’t try and tell me your life and you English school system has told you all you need to know about the world.
And sorry, but in Christianity, premartial sex is WRONG! It is a sin for many clear and necessary reasons. Masturbation is also a sin! And college kids do it far too much! They have to stop it. Thirdly, how can you even defend drug use? Are you that deranged? And condom distribution only encourages more outrageous sex, especially the homosexual kind which is very popular in English schools, so I really don’t trust your anxiousness to defend that aspect of things. You really need to take a hard look at yourself. I can smell you bias all the way across the Atlantic.
“Monitoring internet use is a breach of privacy”– this is huge horse dung. Parents are paying their kids through college, supporting them in partying, drugs, sex, etc. We should have a say in what they do, we should be involved. Technically, kids are still kids until they live off their own money in their own homes– that’s about 30 years old in the USA and maybe 35 in Britain so don’t try to make excuses for your own debauchery.

I am a Christian and am in college. I have taken religious studies courses to better understand different religions including my own. It is my opinion that the Bible is an outdated work that while it has some relevance has to be taken in the context in which it was written. The writers do not claim to be anything but human and thus are highly influenced by the times in which they were writing. We also have to realize that many of the stories in the Bible are just stories intended to make a point, not be historical. I believe the biggest problem with religion is the fact that people try too hard to force it on others which ends up creating the opposite response and driving people away from religion.
It is my belief that as long as you live a good life as a decent human being and follow the ten commandants (basic rules for human dignity) regardless of what religion you may be you will go to heaven. The people that bug me the most are those who go to church religiously and then treat people like dirt once they leave. These people just put on a facade that will lead them to the gates of hell. In the words of the Christian metal band August Burns Red, “The Walls of the church don’t make it holy.”
I have the belief that human nature is not a dirty or wrong thing for the most part. That is, masturbation is a completely natural thing that should be done in private and left at that. I know in a biology class we had a sexuality talk and my teacher said she left her boys to do what they would in the privacy of their room because it was unnatural to keep them from masturbating. I mean God made us this way so who are we to say that we should go against his will and not masturbate? Pot smoking is NOT addictive and really as long as it doesn’t interfere with ur daily life is not a big deal. Your claims that it is worse than coke, heroine, and tequilla put together is laughable. Please don’t make things up just for a shock factor.

The essential problem of today’s youths raised on MTV, FaceBook and premarital sex, is that they believe the Bible is something to be read during story time, just like Winnie the Pooh. These young people are so sure of themselves, so confident that after 16 years of living with their parents and watching YouTube, that they understand the world. Sorry, but you don’t. The Bible is the word of GOD. Jesus died for YOUR sins! It’s just not a bunch of neat parables about cute Jews. Any attempt to say otherwise is blasphemy.
How do you expect to lead an inspired and moral life if you continue on in this “feel good” liberal philosophy? It’s empty and irritating.

look, Mr Billings, I think you need to re-evaluate your stand here. You attempt to claim the moral high ground, but when someone points out a flaw in your arguments, instead of counter pointing with either a documented source or logical reasoning, you insist on throwing petty insults. Virtually everyone of your responses has started by calling the poster some form of an ignorant hell-boung twat. Think to yourself, is this what jesus wants you to be doing?
Next, your points about the Iraq war are entirly unfounded. Rather than going down the wmd road, where I talk about motives, I would rather look at effects. The US led invasion of Iraq has been reported by UNICEF to have caused the deaths of more than half a million children who would not have died other wise. You claim that the Saddam regime was oppresive, and to some extent that is true. However, while the Iraq people lacked symbolic freedom, the government under saddamn was able to turn Iraq into an almost westernized country, however since the invasion, Iraq has fallen back to be one of the most impovrished nations iin the world. They have their freedom, but what they dont have is food.
Next, you claim “We’re also trying to do it in Afghanistan. Should be pull out of there, too, and leave the country to the Taliban so they can train Osama’s troops for global terror once again?”
You are aware that America practically founded the Taliban?
you see Billings, i dont want to get involved on the issues of religion, homosexuality, drugs, videogames. If I even mention these things you can dissmiss me as a hedonistic bastard child.

Hey man, if you have to in order to refrain from insults and mindless zealism, either ignore what i am about to say, or put your comments for it in a seperate part of your response, you know, after the logical one.
This is just what i can tell from your profile pic, but it appears to me that you are a balding over weight man, lecturing parents and children about drugs sex and video games when you have neither experienced any of these ( especially the sex part) and dont even have any children of your own. You write a column that every single person who reads and comments on it can barely hold back their incredulousness at your stupidity.
Look around, this is what the world thinks of you. All you are is an ignorant and bigoted old man, clinging to your faith because you cannot accept any ideas that differ from your own. You live a shell of an existence, mocking kids on the internet while the entire world mocks you. Think for a second, if you died and your religion is wrong, you just wasted your entire existance. If you die and christianity is correct, you will still probably go to hell for your inability to show the kind of altruism preached in the bible, you spout hate. Instead of attempting to “save” these kids, you condemn them like some sort of demi god. You are the manifestation of evil in the world. You pass judgement, you rain insults upon those you disagree with, and the worst part is that you think god encourages this behavior.
Sorry about that, got a little carried away.
kinda like you did while you spent countless hours googling half naked college kids in their underware. why the hell did you include those pictures? Why the hell man? Im not a pervert, i was a little taken aback by them, not the kind of stuff you would expect to find on such a website.

As stated, Iraq possessed no “WMD”s. Saddam only said he did to keep Iran from invading his country. Did his family perform terrible atrocities? Yes. Now then, consider the fact that when he was in power, Iraq had electricity available at any hour of the day. Now: about four hours every so often. The people he oppressed? They’re now blowing themselves up across the country. I am not stating he was justified. I am stating that the fanatics in his country were far more controlled with him in power than without.
By the logic you display, that America has the fundamental right and responsibility to destroy countries whose policies we disagree with, or where atrocities occur, then we would have to bomb most of Africa, most of Eastern & Central Asia, parts of Europe, most of Central America, and parts of North America – yes, our own country.

Wow, Mr. Billings, just wow.
You claim in your articles to be such a mature adult, yet you are clearly letting your frustration get to you.It appears from on an onlooker that people are coming on here and disagree with your ideas. They do this by submiting their own ideas and experiences on why they think you are wrong, and most even use reason.
But, based on your own reactions and comments, the need to do such a thing has gone down the drain. At the start, you replied to their arguments with your own, providing a decent debate, yet now you seem incapable of doing so.
Examples:
“Save your malevolent propaganda for your next Ralph Nader rally, you dirty little basket of sin.”
“You are the apologists for radical terrorists. You should have your citizenship revoked, you red diaper doper baby. How’s the weather in Communist China these days, comrade?”

Dear Steve,
After reading your article and the many comments afterwhich, I have come to one and single question: How can you claim yourself to be of the christian faith?
Not only are your facts stereotypical and misleading, when many other people tried to correct you in that mistake, you took it in an oppositional fashion and insulted and argued their opinions and positions. To my understanding, christianity is a faith based on a view to accept people as they are and to remember that god loves everyone unconditionally and jesus died on the cross to save everyone from their sins.
I myself was once of the christian faith, but it is people like yourself that have made me turn to an aetheist point of view and take a neutral stance on religion. People make assumptuous claims on another’s life style is not only arrogant and self demeaning, but it’s insulting as well. Your arguements and ignorant statements are only proof of my opinion that religion only causes arrogant opinions and a loathing outlook on life.

Josh, sometimes stereotypes are stereotypes for a reason– because they’re true!
And I’m sick and tired of people thinking just because we’re Christians we have to lie down and accept all the pervesity and hellishness of the world today. The Bible is very clear and specific when it comes to homosexuality, fornication, envy, greed, covetousness, etc. There is no pretending otherwise and it’s about time some of us SPEAK UP FOR WHAT IT GOOD AND RIGHT!
I don’t think you know anything about the Christian Faith and what Jesus did for YOUR SINS! Maybe you should go back to the church you pathetically left behind.

Why would you lie in the name of the Lord, Stephen?
Resident Evil has nothing to do with anything Satanic, in fact it has nothing to do with any true evils. The original name of the game is BioHazard. It deals with a biological weapon gone awry.
Silent Hill does indeed put emotional stress on it’s characters…but that is what any good novel does as well. It makes you rally to the characters and wish the best for them and to hope to see them go through their trials. And the characters ultimately triumph in the end. They defeat the paranormal evil. Not ally with it or anything else Satanic.
Dead Space is akin to Resident Evil, it deals with a biological threat that you must defend yourself from. You’re not killing innocents or even people at all.
Please look into your heart Stephen and ask yourself…
Would Jesus lie to convince people of truths?

Every one wants to say that video games are the reason that college kids “act out” more. If the parents would put in a little bit more effort to spend time with their sons and make time for family events and get involved with their schooliing, rather than let them play “violent” video games, then we wouldn’t be here talking about this right now. Violence is going to happen either way, people still got into fights, arguments, killings, all of these kinds of things before video games. It’s just life. Now however, society has let these things become part of everyday life. You cant turn the TV on without seeing violent shows like Law and Order and 24, same with video games.

Stephenson, I’m surprised you didn’t mention grade inflation. Perhaps if these students suffered real consequences for showing up to their classes strung out from gaming, stoned, hung-over, or not showing up at all, they wouldn’t be college-attending addicts anymore. They’d be loser alcoholic/drug abuser college drop-outs. Their professors probably don’t want to fail 70% of their students though, because they would look bad, get bad reviews and fail to get tenure.

I love how people that have all these studies and beliefs that Video Games are some sort of “Life killer”. I’m a very avid gamer and I have never seen video games as a threat to my college studies or my life. I have friends who are just like me, but you see, we use video games as a way to relax and as a way to relieve stress from college. When we’re done playing our games, we can head back to our studies and school work with a level head.
Also: Why does every crack pot who thinks video games are bad have the need to use violent action games like GTA or Halo as examples that insist bad behavior on people? I do play some of kinds of games from time to time, but I also enjoy casual and simple games like Animal Crossing.

Im a very avid gamer and have good social skills but I really don’t like many people because they are for the most part so willfully ignorant and close minded. I have a couple good friends however. I used to smoke pot and all this misinformation about how Columbians are getting Chinese to make it as powerful as heroin is just nonsense. It’s just because the general public is now aware of how weak and not very harmfull pot is, so they have to figure out a new way to scare you with it.

Pot makes you lose touch with reality. it makes you think plants can talk and that everybody loves and wants to hug you. It is a perversion of God’s work and a destruction of the hard, cold reality that is daily life. You sound like you’re still brain damaged from your indulgence. I would seek help for your sins with a local pastor.

There is nothing wrong with being gay, you can’t help the way you are born. If it was a choice why would anyone choose to be gay and make there life so much harder because of discriminating close minded individuals such as yourself. You are the people who make gays kill themselves for thinking they wont be accepted. Jesus talked about helping the poor and ending hate and war a lot, and how many times did he talk about gays, abortion, and hating people with different viewpoints then your own? None, im positive if Heaven was actually real and Jesus was in it he would be disgusted about what has come of his teachings and ideas on how to make the world a better place.

Did Jesus say those things? I think not. Man did when he wrote the bible. For religion to take control of people having another group of people to hate and gang up on really does help and picking out a minority like gay is a really good choice. Lots of animals are gay in nature. Humans are animals. It’s scientifically proven that being gay is not a choice. just like science logic and reason can disproove everything in the bible the Earth isn’t only a couple thousand years old, we aren’t all the spawn of two people (which by the way would mean we are all inbread) life started in Africa and gradually moved north in Asia and Europe. Carbon Dating prooves all of this. The bible say’s to love everyone and to bring peace not to hate and persicute those who are different.

Well Golly Kevin! Thanks for speaking up for Jesus! I’m sure he’d be mighty upset if he found out that the Bible was saying all these things that he wouldn’t like in your opinion. I’m sure Jesus would be plenty thankful that you’re thinking for him! Goodness know he probably didn’t have anything to do with that book and it was probably written by a bunch of mean guys who just wanted to poke fun at God.
Really, in case you’re an even huger idiot than I expect- the above was sarcasm and you are profoundly, incredibly stupid. Who are you to say the Bible goes against Jesus’ teachings? Are you really that ignorant? I just don’t know how to comprehend your monumental stupidity.

Dear Christaholic:
#1 I just want to say, Claire ripped you a new ass. She proved so many more points than you did. How does it feel to be schoole dby a “kiddo?”
#2 I am a gamer, a hardcore gamer. In fact, I put in roughly a minimum of 25 hours a week into gaming.
Guess what? I graduated college. I in fact graduated with a 3.4 GPA. No this is not an “amazing” GPA. But it is respectable none the less.
Oh and how about this one cupkecake: I was a jock in High School as well as an even BIGGER gamer then than now. My main sport (I did many) was wrestling. Guess what? I wasn’t just on the team, I won tournament after tournament and was even 1st in district, 1st in region, and 7th in the state overall. I gauruntee that is more than you ever accomplished.
And would you believe I never did any drug in my life? While most of the school is out partying getting wasted and high, I was playing video games. My choice. Which is worse?
Wow… would you imagine that everything you just said means absolutley nothing?
Oh and I am now an Officer of the law… imagine that? A gamer with a gun.. scary.
Your pictures of shirtless men is pretty upsetting btw.

Claire is a stupendously confused liberal, obsessed with felines and self-gratification. She is a Christian hater and avid typist. In other words, she’s your typical online teen. I fear and pray for her soul every night and there are times when she does see reason and wants to welcome the warmth of Christ into her heart.
I am saddened to hear that you, even as a policeman, can’t control your outrageous masturbation. I hope it doesn’t interfere with your catching criminals. I would hate to think it’s an epidemic in our police forces.
As for your gaming experience, maybe you’re one of the lucky ones. Many children become obese, confused and sick from over indulgence in video gaming and they lose touch with their families who care and love them deeply.

I am a liberal. I am not confused. I’m not obsessed with felines, however, I do love them very much. I am not a Christian hater (my grandparents were all Christians; I don’t hate them), but I do hate you, fatty. I’ll ask you to please not fear for my soul every night—the thought of that is rather disturbing and nauseates me. And, although I am a good person, never have I ever wanted to let Christ into my heart. Good ≠ Christian.

Not to mention the most important part, it fucking feels good! Relieves stress as well. Felling a little down? Feeling stressed out? Then spend a couple minutes and your good to go!

You are so wrong on so many levels, I don’t even know where to begin. Do you want to know why there is little adult supervision on college campuses? ITS BECAUSE COLLEGE STUDENTS ARE ADULTS!!!!! Hey, here’s something that will piss you off…I’m a 20 year old college student living with my 23 year old girlfriend. Where are my parents you may ask…800 miles south of where I live, supporting everything that I do. Why would they support their young son doing something so unspeakably horrible? Because they trust me and know that I am laying the foundation for the rest of my life while I go to school. Don’t even say that my generation is failing at life. I am succeeding. It’s you that is failing now, have failed in the past, and will surly fail in the future spreading the filth that comes out of your horrid mouth. By the way, video game companies don’t have some master plan to destroy the youth. The kids that get “sucked into” games or do bad things after playing them have issues already; they have problems that they need to work out. I’ve played World of Warcraft, I’ve slayed hellish demons on Mars in Doom 3, I’ve carjacked soccer moms while running from the cops in Grand Theft Auto, I’ve devoted many hours to first person shooters while mastering the art of the “head shot,” and I’ve “fragged” my best friend in Halo with a smile on my face, and after all that, I’m still a normal drug free 20 year old college student. Oh, and in case you’re wondering, I’m going to school to study audio for film, television, and gaming. I would say that I am helping develop the horrible trash that will pollute the minds of your children and grand children, but I am just going to assume that there is not a single female alive dumb enough to produce offspring with such a disgusting excuse of a man.
“Without drug testing, most parents will never know the extent of the problem with certainty.” Honestly? So you are basically saying that kids cannot be trusted and that parents should raise their kids in a world full of distrust. Yeah, nothing says “I love you” to your kids like forcing them to submit monthly urine samples. My parents never made me submit drug tests, and they never had a reason to. If they were ever stupid enough to force me to submit any tests, it would destroy my relationship with them quicker than any drug ever could.
Speaking of parent’s let’s talk about mine for a bit since you like to talk about parents so much. Like I said, my parents let me move 800 miles away from home into an apartment with my girlfriend. I have no adult supervision (because my girlfriend and I are both adults), and I go to school to study video games, movies, and television. My parents must be liberal hippies that never grew out of the ’60s right? WRONG! My parents are political and they are Republicans. THEY are Conservative. YOU sir are not Conservative. I truly believe that you are a nut case. You spew filth that is untrue. I go to college and it is nothing like you describe.
You know, to be totally honest with you, I’m completely exhausted with trying to prove a point to such a huge piece of human waste. I read your article on video games and jocks and it is completely repulsive. I was completely pissed when I discovered that you existed, but now I realize that you are doing no real damage because the only people that read the garbage that leaks from your screwed up head are just as screwed up as you are. People that actually know what the world is really like know that you are truly a sadistic bastard and should never be taken seriously. Enough said.

From my personal experience, my friends who do drugs have there shit together so much more than those who don’t. One of my friends like to smoke almost everyday, and yet is a security guard at a prestigious art gallery. Another is studying to be a doctor, while tripping balls every week or 2. Some of my other, non druggy friends includes a 18 year old manchild who refuses to get a job due to lazyness, despite only having a single mother supporting both him and his brother. Another friend is persuing a carrer as a proffessional athelete, and yet smokes shrooms on a semiregular basis. And myself? Studying very the fabric of reality, string theory and quantum loop gravity, with a highpowered electron microscope in one hand, and a huge bong in the other.
My parents, bless them, were both much, much worse than what I am, and yet both now hold high government jobs, one in the seeking of justice, and the other in regulation of business. One of them got kicked out of university due to hard drugs, and the other spent more time high than not high when they were my age. And yet here they are, holding together a perfectly adjusted familly with love and care.
Truly, either my entire life, everything I have ever seen, encountered or heard has been one huge statistical fluke, or perhaps normal, loving parents don’t go around sniffing bedsheets. Personally, I feel that the null hypothesis should be rejected.

Your view of the decline in athleticism is also true. I run a healthy three miles every day while My roommates are fat slops that watch tv all day, MSNBC, no less. Not even spending time in academics of merit while their parents waste away their hard earned money in these harsh economic times.
I hope you recognize that there are people who see the light as you do and continue on, so that people like me will have a place to go to and gain a better understanding of the moral decline of the world and how we can fight to bring it back into God’s good grace.

In your article you suggest checking your son’s bedsheets for semen stains. Teen males produce an enormous amount of sperm and that sperm needs an outlet.

That’s interesting. You don’t have kids? I wonder why an aging man who isn’t interested in female masturbation and hates gays doesn’t have any children. Hmmmmmm? You should just except yourself for who you are and stop displacing your self loathing onto others.
You’re the most immature person posting, Billings. Did you really call someone from England comrade? This has to be one big joke of an article. Nobody is that stupid, nobody. You’re a little man, Billings; assuming this isn’t a joke, which I think it must be. If it is a joke good job, that’s some funny stuff.
Here is what I think: You’re gay and learned to hate yourself for it; nobody in school ever invited you to do anything because nobody likes you and you’re bitter about it; you feel stupid but won’t admit to those feelings either so instead you try to believe everyone else must be stupid, not you.

Hi folks,
I’m a Brit guy and farther of 3 children that have now grown up with the youngest aged 19. A friend of mine pointed me to this site as he couldn’t believe what he was reading and unfortunately I have sat here and read every single response and reply, it saddens me that this hate crime is allowed to go unpunished.
Mr. Billings you are a purveyor of hatred and you are precisely what is wrong with this world. This entire thread doesn’t have one thread of accuracy or supporting data and is jammed full of inconsistency’s veiled threats and childish name calling. From the language you have used and the constant references to teenagers and children I certainly wonder as to your motives as it would seem that if you found a teenager that believed in your ideals they would be some how flawed in there ability to reason and would be ripe for “grooming”.
Every single response that is truly questioning this articles validity is simple ignored and you haven’t actually made any attempt to justify your opinions and its extremely sad but you do realise its your kind that make the USA look like its full to the brim with serial killers, religious extremists and sexual deviants.
Also your previous response to an English student and I quote “Your hazy British ethics have no legitimacy here, comrade” well my advice would be to come to the UK and visit me I could easily demonstrate how hazy I can be!
Also a quick note I love that you preacher types are under the illusion that the bible is the word of god as quoted by yourself several times. Well if it was the word of god the author would be god not John or Paul or Bill, Dave etc etc etc however the Koran is supposed to be the word of god and this is why it’s text cant be changed.
Also because I’m so hazy can you quote the line from the bible that says I cannot wank myself silly till my penis drops off?
Also please quote the line that says premarital sex is a sin? oh by the way the line must start with “god said” otherwise its not the word of god.
I run a “guild” on wow I’m a lvl 80 rogue that could pwn you so badly your eyes would bleed! I don’t use drugs only haste pots and flasks! I’m not a homosexual however I do prefer to do it from behind!

As a legitimate writer as you say you are why may I ask has it taken you 3 days to come up with such an appallingly pathetic response I would expect from a child?
In my response to you I have not mentioned my beliefs in God or in science so your particular statement ‘So you don’t believe in God or Science’ is utterly pointless and that to be honest goes for your article. You say you have proof from both sides? Both sides of what may I ask? It’s certainly not both sides of opinion!
Calling me an imbecile is laughable and calling me a perv is also utterly unfounded as I have not made any comments regarding any kind of sexual deviancy that may or may not interest myself, so this only proves to every one who isn’t an imbecile that you are totally unable to support your claims with out resorting to personal attacks.
Also one point I would like to make is that I’m not in “Your” country you don’t have a country you are technically an immigrant. unless of course your a native American of which I doubt as the ones I have met have always appeared to be thoughtful and philosophical.
I am still waiting for you to produce the answers to my reasonable questions I raised in my previous post? If you cant answer them straight away I understand it may take you a while to google the answers so don’t worry I have many virtues including patience.
P.S You cannot be a practising Christian as I was always taught that a good Christian turns the other cheek and this is something you cannot do so I think you need to consider a very old and wise saying!
Let those without sin cast the first stone!
In your responses I can clearly identify you showing signs of Wrath, Envy and Pride so to be honest my opinion is that your well and truly fucked!

You made a statement that said the bible is the word of god how is this true when the bible is made from various sources that were picked out by a committee that was presided over by a pagan Roman ruler?
When in the bible does “god say” premarital sex is a sin? Considering marriage in the Christian faith as we know it today is actually fairly modern and was certainly not done during the time of Christ.
Also where does it say in the bible that you cannot masturbate?

Dear Mr. Billings, if I were a fellow Christian, I’d be embarrassed for both of us. Clearly you don’t understand your own religion. Does the phrase “Judge not lest yee be judged” ring any bells? All you’re doing in your articles is pointing fingers. Its the 21st century, yes there are a lot of morally corrupt people out there, people who are doing far worse things than playing video games or masturbating. How about instead of bitching online about insignificant issues, you use some of the Christian free love and make a difference in the real world. Lastly, is your life that perfect that you feel you have the right to condemn everyone else? God is pointing the finger at you right now, so really think about it.

I’m at a loss with where to begin here. You’ve made so many outrageous and unfounded claims that I can’t find a good place to jump off from, but here it is.
Marijuana: “Today’s stoner is an agitated radical, more likely to jump out a window to join a liberal protest march than to sleep on the couch watching Bugs Bunny.” First, I dislike being called a “stoner” if you get to use that title i get to call you a bigot (fair is fair). Second modern marijuana users are no different than those of the 1960′s, or those of the 1760′s (like a good number of the men who founded this great nation). If you really dislike the individual freedoms guaranteed in our Bill of Rights maybe you should move to Iran. Marijuana has the tendency of causing fatigue, the so-called “amotivational syndrome” is a direct result of this. Anyone with work ethic should easily overcome this effect as i have.Marijuana! What an awful thing. News reports have stated that the major Mexican and “Columbian drug cartels have hired the world’s top Chinese scientists to make modern day “mary jane” a hundred times more potent than it was in the 1960s. It’s about as hardcore as cocaine, tequila and heroin mixed together.” At risk of receiving the obvious answer i must ask, are you high or just incredibly stupid? Before you try to call marijuana users “conspiracy theorists” you should take a good look at what you wrote. Anyone with knowledge of illegal drugs knows that heroin, cocaine and methamphetamine are some of the only drugs that are truly profitable in international smuggling because of the high value per volume. Most of the quality marijuana in this country comes from domestic growers because marijuana does poorly when crammed into a seat cushion or engine compartment and heated to an excess of a hundred degrees in the Texas sun. I have a friend who was addicted to oxycontin and heroin for over a year. His stories of “Dope sickness” (Opiate withdrawal, including painful fevers and uncontrollable diarrhea) have kept me from doing harder drugs (so much for the “gateway theory”). You may want to learn a thing or two about pharmacology before you talk about drugs, because marijuana is not harmful in the same ways as other drugs. If you are truly anti-drug, go into your medicine cabinet and flush every pill, lozenge, patch and syrup down your toilet, then do the same with every drop of alcohol and caffiene. Though you might have some trouble without your antidepressants and antipsychotics.
Video Games: If you ever attended a University, you may have forgotten what winter is like. With wind chill keeping the temperature below freezing, outdoor activities no longer sound like an attractive option. It’s nice to have something engaging and competitive to do with your peers. They have helped keep my reaction time quick and my competitive spirit alive after high school sports (though I still study and exercise regularly).
“Sharp colors and quick movement like you find in Grand Theft Auto make these couch potatoes feel as if they’re really moving through life at a brisk pace while in reality growing obese. It makes them feel important, as if they’re achieving something, while their textbooks sit unopened on nearby desks. It sucks up hours upon hours when these children could be learning business or engineering”
Looking for an engineer who smokes marijuana and plays video games? Right here, Bigot.

It is one thing to disagree with homosexuality, but this article’s mention of homosexuals is completely and utterly offensive. How can you call yourself a christian? Use Christ’s love when dealing with difficult issues and the actions of people you don’t agree with. Show those who sin that God is the only one that can make the final judgements. Our job is to love one another and our Lord – not to hate the actions of those we don’t agree with.
Also, marijuana use in this country may be rampant among our colleges students, but PLEASE get your facts straight before you write an article like this. Marijuana has been proven to be one of the most harmless drugs (less harmless than alcohol and even most prescriptions) when used by itself. If you don’t believe this check research on a peer-reviewed database on psychoactic substances like PSYCHINFO and EBSCO. Lying to our youth will not cause them to stop drug use, it will only cause them to distrust us. Have honest talks with your children about the risks of drug use and encourage them to make decisions. If they see you are being honest, they will most likely listen.

This article completely disgusts me. I am currently a college student and I’m doing quite well. Did you ever take into account that the reason that many college graduates can’t get a job after they graduate is because of the current state of the world economy. Also has it ever occurred to a parent to make their child pay for their own college education. That’s what I’m doing. I made it through my first to years of college on my own savings and afterwards I was forced to take out loans. I think that by doing this I have gained a sense of financial responsibility knowing that I will have to pay these loans back once I graduate.
You put jocks in such a high place here but from my experience the people on the sports teams are the ones who go out and drink the most alcohol, do the most drugs, and have the most sex. I have never been athletically inclined and do to a recent back injury I am currently unable to even really go to the gym which is unfortunate. Instead I find other things to occupy my free time when I’m not in class or studying. Things like video games. Video games have been a way for me to relieve stress after a long hours of studying and homework.
Your article pretty much just takes all the worst stereotypes and assumes that every college student is like this. Your suggestions are ridiculous and your assumptions are just wrong. Please get a life and do some actual research.
I would love to comment more on how your article is complete crap but I have finals to study for and I’ve already wasted enough time with this already.

By your logic you have to admit that Bush was a terrible president. He was part of a cult and smoked and drank all the time in college. Fair’s fair, am I right?
//I would also caution you against continuing in this lifestyle. It’s hard enough to work and thrive in today’s society, but when you add hardcore drugs to the mix it gets even worse.//
I failed to read where he said he still does, because from the sound of it, it sounds he did stop.
//It affects your judgement, your body and your ability to eventually produce healthy children.//
Only 2/3′s of that are true on a man, being drunk and high does affect your body and judgment, but it does NOT affect your children. The only way it possibly could would be if you continuously banged a chick who was pregnant with your kid while drunk and high.

I’m with you on one point. Coldplay do suck a considerable amount of balls. Other than that, just wow.
A rundown of my favourite parts:
-“George Bush Invaded Iraq For Oil” is a classic drug-inspired pipe dream that college freaks have spread all over the planet, to the genuine harm of American foreign interests.
You are totally right, I mean remember all those weapons of mass destruction they found? By ‘American Foreign Interests’ I assume you mean Americas interest in invading foreign countries because you, Mr Billings, are terrified of them.
-Video games like Gangstar, Halo and Metal Gear Solid are turning our clean-cut college children into drug addicted bisexual libertines who live in a nasty world of imaginary radical terrorists (Perfect Dark), sadistic nymphos (Soul Calibur) or hero athletes (Pro Skater)
My favourite part is the ending. No one wants their kid to be a ‘hero athlete’ after all. It’s not like this site constantly suggests that sports are essential to everyone’s healthy development and that being to interested in the “arts” (they actually put it in inverted commas!) would lead to them becoming gay…I get the feeling you ran out of ideas after the first two.
-The real leaders of the future will be found sweating from a long hard afternoon next to you in a dimly lit college locker room.
Did you get bored of writing this, and start thinking about the old times? The dimly lit locker room does sound very romantic…

“First, let’s be clear on one thing. Masturbation is healthy. Only Over Masturbation is unhealthy.
Masturbation is not immoral or wrong. Those ideas screw up more boys men than you can count.
Masturbation (when there is no regular intercourse, or intercourse too infrequently) is actually a very very healthy practice. It is almost as good as Prostate Milking for maintaing a healthy prostate and sexual system. “

Mr. Billings, growing up in a Christian home with a Christian family and I was always taught to try to bring out the best in other people and help show them the light of Jesus and our Lord. You, in the other hand seem to immediately look down upon and call names anybody who questions your opinion, even in the least bit. I think you are a shameful man and I am very sorry to share the same religion as you. I think you need to take a good long look at yourself and the world you live in my friend. Almost everything I read in this article is very very wrong.
My favorite part is when you said,
“With campus homosexual activist organizationss and boys showering together in very close quarters, there are too many temptations for the curious struggling with relentless physical needs.”
And then at the end, talking about our ‘future leaders,’
“The real leaders of the future will be found sweating from a long hard afternoon next to you in a dimly lit college locker room. We are all humbled and equal in our small white towels, lining up for a relieving, hot shower.”
Now I’m no psychologist but I think you should perhaps look here…

What gives you the right to bash what you don’t know or understand? You are full of hate and you have probably never even listened to Coldplay a day in your life. There have been articles written about Black Veil Brides, but Coldplay? Really? They have won seven Grammys. How many Grammys have you won? What makes you an expert on them? On Amy Winehouse or Green Day for that matter? Coldplay is an amazing band that promotes hope, love, and YES, God. I believe in God but you take it WAY too far.
