Me either. God did lead me to a bar down the street from where I used to live once. I sat there and had a coke. He told me to talk to the first person who opened up to converse with me. A woman sat down one seat over from me and ordered a drink. She smiled and said, "Hi!". I said hi and then we began talking. She had just gone through a divorce, was dating a cheater, and things were tough. I began to tell her all about Jesus. She laughed and said, "What are you, a preacher?" I said, "Well, I'm not a preacher, but the Lord told me to come in here and talk to you." She noticed I was drinking a coke and her eyes got real big. I began to tell her how God desired to put her life back together if she'd only trust Him. We had a very good conversation, she was nearly in tears. I invited her to church and we exchanged numbers. She didn't show up at church. Nor did she never call. I tried to call her but she never answered. She had her day of visitation. I pray God sent someone else into her life and that she found her way. God must of loved her an awful lot.

Who am I to question what God has supposedly told someone to do?

Well when our lifestyle doesn't match up with scripture I have a problem. I am not saying we should all dress like the Amish but there is a certain standard of dress required to go out in public "restaurant, theme park, ect,ect..." Somehow this standard of dress is not required for TV though. Strange.
True, television has virtually no standard as it relates to modesty. I thank God for the decent programs. However, sometimes even those shows have segments that are risqué.

I see a difference between immodesty and soft-core porn.

I will not watch this show because I know it is trash.
I probably won't watch it either.
