Think about what is on TV now versus when TV originally aired. You think all the messed up junk sprung up overnight? At first no foul language.. then maybe they said "damn" for the first time. That would have created an uproar with some people, while others would have said "well maybe it's not that bad", then they said "ass".. well maybe it's not that bad and slowly graduates to all the disturbing things we now hear on prime time TV.

The first kiss on TV.... remember that? I don't, cause I'm too young, but I know about it... it was a big deal.. that's something that was taken seriously.. slowly longer kisses, clothes started to come off, and now it's basically inappropriate content on prime time. If you would have asked someone back before the first kiss if they thought there would be all the stuff on TV that there is now, they said "no way, you're paranoid and self righteous for actually trying to decipher what is going on in this world. Let me melt my brain in peace and you mind your own business".

How about when the Beatles said "we're bigger than Jesus"? Uproar, people tossed their records, they were banned from the radio... they had to make a formal public apology... look at all the stuff that people can say against Jesus now... happened overnight?

Before you start calling people self righteous because they refuse to put their heads in the sand for their own sake and the sake of others. Maybe, just maybe, you should check to see if you're being self righteous by saying that the people who feel lead to discernment (which God tells us to do in everything by the holy spirit) are in the wrong and are being self righteous.

No where did I even say that you shouldn't watch it. Or you're doomed if you do. I'm simply saying to be careful of what you're putting into your mind. Is that really any different than what the Bible says?
