The problem with Airplane is that you have to pay attention to appreciate it. That's a little harder to do with invited guests

The Police Squad TV show failed because nobody was used to paying attention to TV.

+1000 for 12 Angry Men. A fantastic drama for a group to watch together.

Approaching kindness or generosity from a biological point of view seems (to me) to lead to The Prisoners' Dilemma. Everyone is better off if we are all generous, but if I can't trust others to be generous, I'm better off being selfish.

IMHO, religion is an evolutionary adaptation to "solve" this problem. It might have worked in small communities, but not in our global society.

I'm rambling...

Can we discuss atheism without turning every thread into a rehashing of Religions' Atrocities.

Off topic: I'm old & out of the loop. Is this a new meaning for "give slack"? It seems opposite of what my understanding. To me it means giving leeway, or latitude, or freedom. To give someone slack was to give some freedom or forgiveness. A metaphor of lengthening a dog's leash.
