Pastor G, unfortunately we both know it would probably never get past the resolution committee!
I wasn't around when the ink first dried, but it seems to me that the prevailing view back in the day was that entertainment in and of itself is sin. The manual specifically bans "theaters"--not specifying whether movie or live stage performances. Fast-forward to present day and we find that Branson is now the Apostolic Entertainment Mecca because of its good, clean, old-fashioned family values with that good old harmless country and western style music we used to sing in church before the kids took over with their rebellious and abnoxiously repetitive praise music. Why, them good folks out at Silver Dollar City are still standing for the old-time holiness standards, what with wearin their long sleeves and ground-draggin dresses even on the hottest of summer days! (and isn't that saloon show the cutest thing!) And who could have foreseen the advent of IMAX with its educational, non-entertaining, and surely non-Hollywood-supporting "film strips"?
