Me:

When I attended Gateway College of Evangelism in St. Louis, MO, I had a
teacher who spoke out against television and used the above scripture as
reference.  In my opinion, it is the best scripture to use in speaking
out against TV and movies.  We certainly wouldn't dare think of doing
half the things that are portrayed on tv, but it doesn't bother us one
bit to be entertained by it.  If we truly hate sin, we wouldn't even
enjoy watching those who pleasure in it.  I concur totally!!!!
