Good science has proven, TV has contributed greatly to the moral demise of our World. The mind is a place that stores and processes information. The mind is also stimulated through the eye gate. Constant bombardment of foul and debased entertainment can weaken our resolve to avoid evil. Studies and science have shown through decades of research all this to be true. The Bible as well, backs this philosophy.
Also, Jesus said the eyes are the light of the body. Garbage in, garbage out. We must be careful what we allow into the heart, as the heart is where we ultimately make the final choice about life and its many problems.
What's even worse is this; Video games. Video games have been shown to release dopamine (naturally produced moriphine-like stimulate) in the brain, causing euphoric and addictive qualities. They have done tests' on children in the hospital who were suffering and in pain. They allowed them to play video games and found the need for pain medication was reduced, and even eliminated. This is stunning with power.
Another interesting find is this: The counselers who work in my office have told me, every case of pornography addiction they have dealt with includes video game addiction. Not one case was void of video games. This shows, fantasy, which stimulates almost a medicinal affect, breeds and grows with violent ferver.
This has caused many to throw caution to the wind, losing family, jobs, and most important, reality. When we lose touch with reality, the consequences are unfathomable.
