Television and the Basics of Human Nature

In surfing around obsessing about 24, I have been reading lots of comments on the portrayal of Muslims in the show. Currently (five eps in) it looks as if the bad guys are not-so-stereotypical possibly Muslim terrorists who have an undefined agenda to 'change the world'.

I'm not going to get into the murky discussion of what sort of responsibilities fictional stories have in portraying people, rather, I'm going to address the underlying philosophies that need to be addressed before such a discussion is possible.

( Beware: philosophical discussion )

Hey Finny!

Eye contact!
