When my dad was a boy, one of his cousins had his eye shot out with a BB gun and had to wear an eyepatch for life.  Today, kids may blow up poorly-animated cars and shoot poorly-animated pedestrians in Grand Theft Auto.  Yet the playtime of today's American youth are less moral and more conducive to creating monsters than my dad's generation?  I don't see how that works.

I would actually agree with that assertion. Least of because, at it's foundation, the former would learn something, experience the world. How could one be moral without engaging morality? Detachment is antithetical to morality.

Agree.  There are no savage/barbarian people, just savage/barbarian cultures.
