Since 1897 a great many changes have appeared upon the horizon - some for the good, a vast number decadent but blindly nurtured as being good for the economy if not man's souls. New sciences and moral issues have redefined place and time. This pretty much summarizes the present climate and societal attitudes. Sophisticated, mind-picking psychologists now frown on fanciful untruths. Children are versed in Karate, instructed about wombs and birth canals.
Sex education is accepted as a progressive discipline and all stories are grounded.
Fairies and fairy tales are being replaced by sophisticated combative computer games and intricate networkings. Stories about witches and goblins as well as Halloween are often banned by religious orders as Satanic Worship yet the devil is not expunged from their scriptures and is used as a weapon to frighten and win converts. Today, as never before, supposed civilized man accepts violence as the inevitable way of life. Violence is cheered in our sports. Crudeness and rudeness applauded.
