Re: The world speaks about tv.
There are LOTS of secular and non-Apostolic people who recognize the threat of unhindered, unmonitored media being streamed into the home--especially homes with children.
Personally, I know a lot of homeschool families, both secular and Christian, who don't have TV because of it's negligible content (meaning--having no real value), the distraction factor, and because it's a time thief. They don't have an Apostolic/Ultra-Con background.
I tend to agree, to a point, except that I don't want to make TV the *forbidden fruit*. We have it, but it's very limited, some channels are completely blocked, and our kids aren't allowed to be couch potatoes. Our kids have grown up with it, and can take it or leave it, but we have relatives who don't have TV so when they come to our house they're glued to it constantly.
