Bro. Marlon I really enjoyed your response that used a quote from me.
However, before you got to all the good stuff you stated the above. I must
say that I in NOway *feel* superior to or better then any other person Gad
has seen fit to cleans with his blood. For it is by HIS GRACE that we are
all saved. I am a person who doesn't own a TV, and thanks be to God that he
placed me in a church that doesn't believe in TV's and Video. I am the type
of person that is COMPLETELY MESMERISED by TV, if you and I were to go into
your living room or a resturant where there is a TV on, ALL meaningful
conversation would end between us because of my problem. There have been
numberous scientific studies on TV and its effects on the brain. You must
have heard all of the Movie Stars like Tom Cruise and Nicole Kidman that do
not own TV's, people like Madonna do not own TV's and these same people
don't allow their children to watch TV. If the very people that make their
livings from TV don't own TV's for thier childrens sake, then why would we
who are freed from sin continue there in??
