How is Western Christianity manipulated in American Supernatural Thrillers like It Follows to produce a social map of judgment and condemnation? Are these types of films extensions of religion? Why can't young people have sex outside of marriage? How is all this emotional maelstrom regarding sex ultimately linked to the Counterculture of the 1960s? Use my documentary link below on the 1978 American Horror film Halloween as an example that connects sex, the counterculture, and sin.

The Hypothetical
The Republic of Amistan has brought an action in the International Court of Justice [ICJ] against Malevoland, for violations of the Convention on the Prevention and Punishment of the Crime of Genocide. Both are parties to the convention. There is ample proof in expert reports and the media that Malevoland has targeted a religious minority group by: 1) Confining and, in some cases, executing the groups religious and political leaders who have resisted Malevolands assimilation policies, and 2) Removing children from the group to place them in camps where the children are forbidden from speaking the language of their group or engaging in other cultural practices. At this point it is unclear whether Malevoland intends to return the children. The ICJs jurisdiction in this matter, under article IX of the Genocide Convention, hinges on whether Malevolands actions amount to genocide under article II of the convention.
