I understand what you say about why put it there unnecessarily. The point I am making is that I really can not go to work if I do that. We have billboards that advertise sex sex and more sex. Straight sex. Gay sex. There are advertisements for casino's. anything that anyone can call wrong all over the place. I really could not go to work if I had to close my eyes or turn my head at everything, and I only live 6 miles from my office.
That is why I say we insulate ourselves from it. We pray and serve God and avoid what we can. If you want to watch a show and something comes on you turn the channel or turn it off or down. Now days you can even tivo things and not have to watch the commercials.

Do you want me to go on with this subject or would you rather stop?
Having tv in your house, and you put it there, and you knew you'd see trash is different then going to work. You chose to be entertained and knew what you'd see was not good. Can you watch everything you watch, with your babies sitting next to you? Desensitized, is a word that comes to my mind.
Do you repent daily for setting something evil before your eyes... and not walking in thine house with a clean heart?? I'll discuss against tv as long as your up for it. Just because there are jerks in the ACI (in every org.) does not change the book.
