In what has to be the most hilarious story I've heard in quite a while, a recent British survey called 'Women And Religion In The West' states that watching the hit series "Buffy the Vampire Slayer" is the cause of people abandoning church. Have these tewats ever seen the show? What's next? Harry Potter will bring forth the Apocolypse?
So Sarah Michelle Gellar and 'Angel' are responsible for around 50,000 women deciding against being shouted at by a man in a dress every Sunday morning and preferring to go about their Satanic ways. The author of the dreary study, Dr. Kristine Aune, managed to stop declaring that the power of Christ compels you to destroy your 'Buffy' box sets just long enough to say...
"Because of its focus on female empowerment, young women are attracted by Wicca, popularised by the TV series Buffy the Vampire Slayer. In short, women are abandoning the church."
I could go into a whole schpeel about why folks aren't going to church anymore, but there ain't enough room for me to write this. As someone who watched Buffy & Angel faithfully, I abandoned the stupid Christian faith long before it "converted me to it's demonic ways." buffy was about individuality, surviving the cruel world in which we lived, and female empowerment. The monsters used on the show was actually a metaphor for humanity. if these religious idiots actually sat down and watched an episode, they would know this, they're only interested in what they've always been interested in: Using outdated rhetoric to keep those with no mind of their own under their control.
