Just My Opinion-Conforming to the world.
I don't watch television local shows anymore. I stopped about 3 years ago when we started watching more Netflix. I watch older tv series or movies.. Every show seems to have an agenda to promote the homosexual lifestyle. It has become the norm on television and in movies, so much so that they all show it anymore. Netflix has started coming up with it's own television series as well with frequent shows. What I have observed is a rise in profanity and violence. I can't even stand to watch it. It makes me cringe with each swear word and literally makes me feel sick. It is so frequent and vulgar, violent and inappropriate. How did it ever get so bad, how did we let this be accepted? I think the fact that it makes me sick is an example of how others should feel that are'nt used to seeing or hearing it. On the other hand if you get exposed to something over and over, you become numb to it with little shock and awe. That is just like conformity. Society continues to be driven farther and farther away from what is right and true. There was a line that has been crossed so many times and society just keeps pushing the line a little farther. I hate to see it happen and it is happening so rapidly if one just compared a look back at television shows from the 60's, then 80's, and 2000, and now. With the new age of social media and sites like you-tube, there are endless video clips, short videos, memes, etc. at the palm of your hand that a person can fill there mind with. I try so hard to limit the boys from all the content out there. I know they are so much better off without all the garbage, but they like any other kid want to see it. I once heard a pastor use the analogy of a miner going deep into the mine. He usually comes up covered in black soot and filth and time was wasted. Very seldom does he come up with a nugget of gold. There is way more trash than any good that comes from online videos. I fear for where the next generations and what kinds of things they will be exposed to. We have such a problem with mental illness, crime, violence, mass shootings, rape, and sexual abuse, in this country. I really think television and movies have a big impact on it. I refuse to watch movies or shows that have the f bomb in it. I refuse to watch shows that are vulgar and violent or crude and inappropriate. I don't understand why anyone would and why and how these things got to be so available.Romans 12:2 Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is—his good, pleasing and perfect will.
