We were on an ABC affilliate that reached five states, I think. We actually had a large following. I'm hoping lots of those people will now come to church. since we have gone off.

But makeup on Eddie? NEVER! That would be hilarious.

ABC is a major station so I guess things has change a great deal. I remember the Joel Ankerberg show all his guests including himself needed touch up with the brush as did the two adulterant Jimmies.

So why would these people come to church because you went off the air?
Wouldn't it be easier just to change the channel and find another preacher?

how exactly has it become commercialized??? I want something specific here, too, because "they're gonna be on tv" is not commercialization...

Do you know for a fact that a lot of these "UC" have computers or do you even
know what they are doing with them?

Computers are not just for the Internet.
I have a cousin who has a computer at home but is not on the internet-doesn't trust it. He thinks too many are watching you surf.


Oh by the way he is not Apostolic!

Computer-many uses. TV-One main use.
are VeggieTales evil??

If not, then not all television is evil, because VeggieTales are nationally syndicated now... as are 3-2-1 Penguins (or whatever) and one other Big Idea show....

Put down your crayons and pay attention. I said it was about an organization BECOMING COMMERCIALIZED, give it some time, you will see how it will become a sterilized plastic and commercialized shadow of what they use to be.

A) lay off the insults, ok? They're lame and all they do is make you look bad and hurt your thoughts...

B) so, essentially you don't have a reason to say that we're becoming commercialized other than the simple fact that we're not doing what you want us to do??? OK, moving on then (since you don't actually have anything to say)...

The rest is Chinese to me, Veggie Tales I know about, but that other stuff I have no clue.

Commercialized eh? That would then mean having advertisements on Radio is bad. Advertising on Internet is wrong. Advertising in Magazines and newspapers are wrong. It's all commercial.

Wrong, just my communications with you hurts my thoughts. I can kick myself every time we dialog. All you do is complain.

Why is Television worldly but radio and internet are not?
