(Wow, you discovered my kryptonite. Nothing compels me to openness like an accusation of dishonesty.)
But no, I see no good argument in your reply there. I think that habits from one context do indeed bleed over into another. I think it happens all the time. Yes, in can inform. And it can outright influence too.

Okay. Maybe I’ve been a bit too direct. I’m sorry if that makes you feel a certain way but I really can not tell.
You can look it up. There have been studies done on exact this topic. I’m not an expert though. I remember people discussing similar topics like if playing Counterstrike on a computer makes you want to kill people in real-life. As far as i remember there has been quite some effort trying to prove there is a connection. You have to really read the studies, though, to understand. And to know about correlation, causation and all the scientific stuff. AFAIK it turns out children at a certain age develop an understanding and slowly start to learn to differentiate between fiction and reality.
