Quote# 60248

From the beginning, the producers of television have had an agenda. Even in the most “harmless” of shows, alternative lifestyles are being promoted. Consider, for example, “The Andy Griffith Show.” The show centers around a single parent who lives with his aunt. Admittedly, his wife supposedly died, and he is not divorced. However, we are still being desensitized to the idea of a single parent which is neither the norm nor God’s plan. The show also features a character, Gomer Pile, who is played by a man who is a homosexual in real life.



Consider the show “The Odd Couple” from the 1960’s. Aside from sinful content, we are being exposed to an alternative lifestyle of two men living together as roommates. Genesis 2:24 tells us God’s normal plan, “Therefore shall a man leave his father and his mother, and shall cleave unto his wife: and they shall be one flesh.” Although neither man in the show is a homosexual, this show was obviously a forerunner of the sitcoms of today which feature homosexual characters.



Consider “The Brady Bunch.” The show is about a widowed man and a widowed woman who have three children each. Now they are married and have six children collectively. This is an extremely rare scenario but mirrors the very common scenario of divorce and remarriage. We are subliminally being exposed to the idea of stepparents and stepchildren which is far more common in divorced situations than in the rare circumstance of young widows.

I wonder what Steven would think if he knew that I am a man with a female housemate. Is that sinful? It is sort of dirty in my room... am I supposed to force my female roomate to clean it up, or what?

It's only sinful if you do it right.

#920255: "Gomer was gay?"

Well, Gomer wasn't gay, but Jim Nabors who portrayed him (and subsequently starred as the same character in the spinoff "Gomer Pyle, U.S.M.C.") is. As Gomer used to say:

SURPRISE! SURPRISE! SURPRISE!

*Facepalm*

First you complain about a widowed guy who doesn't remarry, then you complain about two widowed people that marry.

MAKE YOUR DAMN MIND ALREADY!

@Efrain:

I must be doing it wrong, then, because God just told me that I'm a little suck-up, and I need to grow a pair. What do you think that means? Maybe I should ask Steven L Anderson.

So which is more sinful--two men living together as roommates or a man and a woman living as roommates?

I agree Andy Griffith was pretty damned evil, but not for the reasons you list.

I was raised by a single mother and I turned out just fine. Fuck you for thinking there's anything wrong with that.

People who are pro-family are really just pro a very specific kind of family.

What do these freaks watch for entertainment? Aside from megachurch fund raising broadcasts that is.

If tv is so subliminally evil, turn it off.

I mean, I don't even have a tv, and I get along just fine as a Darwin-worshipping, 'Bama-adulating, abortion-loving, cramming-the-gay-down-your-throat atheist.

Throw away your tv. You can be just like me!

Widowers re-marring or widowers not re-marring.
Make up your damn mind. Oh, and widows aren't "rare" you damn asshole. Death happens every day.

“Therefore shall a man leave his father and his mother, and shall cleave unto his wife: and they shall be one flesh.”

Rather contradicted by 1 Corinthians 7:8 isn't it?
"I say therefore to the unmarried and widows, It is good for them if they abide even as I".

Wait, wasn't the guy who played the dad on The Brady Bunch gay? How dare they film that pervert sharing a bed with a woman! Men and women should sleep in seperate beds like they did on TV before that evil Brady Bunch.
