Is it right to lie to your kids about Santa Claus? (Kids Talk Post)

qruel says...

my 3 yr old seems quite skeptical of Santa and his magical powers as she questioned how Santa gets into houses with no fireplaces, how he gets all around the world in one night, or how he got into our house when she knows there is a cover at the top of the chimney to protect it from rainwater. While I personally don't want to encourage the Santa lie(myth), the wife see's no problem in it, so I told my daughter those were good questions and asked her questions back to her to answer what she thought. In the end I told her i didn't know but that her reasoning sounded plausible. My wife would say "it's magic"

I try to raise my kid to question things (how they work and why) and be skeptical and inquisitive. I think she'll apply those skills in time to the mythology that we pass onto our kids as truth (Santa, Easter Bunny). Part of my fear is that since kids are so easily indoctrinated and I don't want her buying into the mythology that is religion (I'm hopefully preparing her critical thinking for when her grandparents try to push their belief of their god and magical jesus on her - when I'm not around)

None of this has squelched her creativity or imagination as she plays and talks about unicorns, pegasus's, fairies, monsters, etc... all the while knowing those are all imaginary things. It's kind of like giving her the knowledge that santa isn't real without telling her directly.

In the end every parent deals with it differently and there is no right or wrong way.

I have a Rock Pegasus 670 Laptop - 2GB 8600GT (I do 3D modelling and games hehe, as well as Skype and internet stuff) and 2.4Ghz Intel Duel Core 2

Oh, and Vista 32bit, which I have found to be nice

Clip from "Battlestar Galactica: Razor" w/ the Pegasus

EDD says...

I actually felt there was less of the "icy-hot bitchiness and brutality" in Razor than in her scenes in the series, partly due to the fact that only about a half or even less of the film talked about Pegasus under Admiral Cain. OK, I won't spoil anything else for you, just see it sometime!

Battlestar Galactica: Great show, or GREATEST show? (Scifi Talk Post)

dag says...

Comment hidden because you are ignoring dag. (show it anyway)

I lost interest around the middle of season 2. The Pegasus captain being a supermodel stretched my suspension of disbelief to the breaking point.

Also, got a bit tired how they were always trying to go for the parallels in US foreign policy.

I also found the cast all-together too "pretty" with the exception of Tigh and Adama. Apollo is a real milquetoast - and makes me shiver with discomfort when he gets all angsty.

Just my two cubits ...

Battlestar Galactica: Great show, or GREATEST show? (Scifi Talk Post)

dystopianfuturetoday says...

I must say that most of the last season was a big disappointment, but the season finale restored some of my hope. BSG is the only hour long TV show I will tor... er.. watch, so I guess only = greatest.

I really dug the conflict with the Pegasus and the provocative 'New Caprica' Episodes (except for Lee's stupid fat suit). I hope they can match those episodes and not get too wrapped up in new-agey mumbo-jumbo. When does the season launch?

When something is presented in cartoon format, it is easier to disassociate yourself from the reality and actions that are portrayed. Children have a harder time doing this than adults.

This has absolutely nothing to do with the video and everything to do with parental responsibility. That said, I'm shocked you were offended by this. Certain things cross "the line" for me... the Family Guy episode that referenced Elizabeth Smart singing about being raped is one that stands out for me. But I guess the line is different for everyone. I thought this video was hilarious, despite my deep love of Pegasus.

Battlestar Galactica: The [epic] Adama maneuver

theo47 says...

While "the maneuver" (a FTL in the atmosphere) is frakkin' awesome, that shot of the Galactica falling into nothingness only to be rescued by the Pegasus was even better.

Trailer for Season 3 of "Battlestar Galactica"

Devlin says...

Yeah, I'm curious who got up enough sack to take Tigh's eye out, and if they will survive long enough to brag about it. Prediction: Dualla dies with the Battlestar Pegasus in the third or so episode into the season.

But however the series goes, I hope there is one HELL of a fight at New Caprica. None of this wimping out crap that went on in some of the other fights.
