I forced myself to watch some of the Super Bowl.

I know I'm out of step with most Americans on this, but a long time ago I turned away from it. I stopped watching the event and even being interested in NFL Football. It wasn't so much the games themselves that offended me, but what came with it – the exploitation of viewers, the way it distracts Americans from important things, the ads, the hoopla, the way the entertainment industry used it to promote sex and cultural degradation.

To me, it's all reminiscent of ancient Rome and the Coliseum. That's where the entertainment industry is leading us – back to the "glories" of Rome, the fasces, the cheapening of humanity.

Football is no longer a sport in America. It's a trap.

Remember when football was accompanied by half-time shows of marching bands and patriotic music? It's a distant memory now.

It's no longer safe to sit around the television and watch the Super Bowl – or any sporting event, for that matter – with your children. Now it's a way for Hollywood and Madison Avenue to manipulate you.

Everyone is talking about Janet Jackson's strip show in front of 140 million Americans. But the degradation started way before that.

It began with a Carl's Jr. ad of a young woman eating a sloppy hamburger on a mechanical bull bucking machine.

I knew Carl Karcher. He was a good American – a Christian, a family man. But long ago, his family business went public and the ad agencies took over the marketing. Now the company uses Hugh Hefner to promote the Playboy philosophy in its commercials.

It's not about selling hamburgers anymore. It's about selling irresponsible, care-free sex.

I remember 20 years ago, 30 years ago, when the entertainment industry seemed determined to make a political statement in every TV show, every movie, every interview, etc. Today, the entertainment industry seems determined to strip away from our culture any vestige of decency and morality. Janet Jackson, Justin Timberlake, P. Diddy are nihilists. Do you know what nihilism is?

It's the viewpoint that traditional values and beliefs are unfounded and that existence is senseless and useless. It's the worldview that denies any objective ground of truth and especially of moral truths. That's what MTV, CBS, Pepsi and Carl's Jr. support and exploit.

That's what the Super Bowl has become. It's become a part of that licentiousness – a way to grab Americans, to seduce them in the privacy of their own homes, to persuade them that life is just a Cabaret, old friends.

CBS will undoubtedly try to backtrack now. The NFL will try to convince us that it knew nothing of what was going to happen in that half-time show. Even MTV is trying to escape responsibility for the show it produced – all the while exploiting the publicity for maximum effect.

Maybe it's a good thing that Americans got to see a little bit of what their kids watch when they're not around. MTV feeds them a constant diet of cheap sexploitation – 24 hours a day, seven days a week.

But do you believe this was a "mistake"?

It was no mistake. It was intentional. It was meant to shock you. It was meant to lower your defenses. It was meant to chip away at your morals. It was meant to demean you and your children. It was meant to convince you that life has no ultimate real meaning.

America is better than this. We have a proud tradition of being a country founded on Judeo-Christian principles. We still claim to stand for something better than this kind of exhibitionism. We invite judgment when we as a nation tolerate and accept this garbage as entertainment. God will not be mocked.

Let's face it. What we saw during the Super Bowl is more reminiscent – culturally, morally, artistically – of what we would expect to see in pre-Third Reich Germany.
