I'm as atheistic as they come, and the entire tone of the show bothered me. They've taken what used to be a family-type event, the Superbowl, and transformed it into something I have to be mindful of when thinking about what the kids can watch on TV. "I'll have you naked by the end of this song", while entirely appropriate and fun for adult entertainment, is sort of out of place when your 8-year-old daughter, who wants to watch the game and the show, looks at you and asks "why?" I think the bulk of the disapproval stems, not so much from some religious morality play, but from anger that fairly racy pop culture is taking over iconic family territory.
