Bestworking posted:She had every right to object to the show. It is filthy, and back then when people had better morals it was upsetting to some. Why would you say those things about her because of it? Avoid conflict? So, any opposing views are conflict, and you, like most on here, only want replies that agree with you? I was not out of line, I said your choice of shows surprised me, since you have always professed to be a Christian. So just who is the "you" you were replying to? ("If you want to go around life hyper critical then you're going to have a miserable life").
I have noticed that the men on here can take opposition from other men a lot better than from women. The exceptions being Dire and Kraven. First the delicate flower that got all offended by the word b***, called it nasty, which it isn't. I was the one that put the word in asterisks, not the site. Jt has cried forever when I or Kraven disputed something or disagreed with him, calling it attacking him when in reality it is he that name calls and attacks after getting caught in one of his many lies. Of course I'm going to give it back to him. The other poster made a statement about the area that I disagreed with and felt was false, got peeved at me for saying I had never heard of anyone having that experience and there we went. I see you choose to take that route too.
She did have the right to object but as I understood it she wanted to stop the show and cancel it. In other words she wasn't happy objecting to it or turning the channel she wanted to make the decision for everyone and it's that what I was commenting on. The statement you bolded I did make, I did say "you" it was meant in general and not specifically to you and I in later statements attempted to clarify that, attempted to restate I didn't address it to you, YET ONE MORE TIME I will repeat/paste what I said above :
I thought that was fairly clear and precise. What I said, about being critical, I believe to be correct and that is that hyper critical people (religious or not) usually go around life being miserable and if they aren't miserable then they make others miserable for they never can be satisfied with anything.
Where in the forums, please cite the reference, did I ever indicate or state, as you said it above "So, any opposing views are conflict, and you, like most on here, only want replies that agree with you?" That is an impression you have regarding me but that simply isn't true, never has been nor is now and I believe those on here who have followed my post in any forum knows that is not true as well. Also who (never mind who, where did I) said you were out of line saying what you said, not me? Also what, in your mind, is a Christian supposed to do? Nothing but be in prayer all day, never watch TV? never go to movies? eat only certain things? Christians are JUST LIKE (ALIKE) all other people (non-Christians) the only difference is the decision they make, their future (after death) state, and God has given unto them His Holy Spirit dwelling within their bodies along with their inner spirit/soul" Other than that they are exactly like every one else and able to make the same mistakes, do the same things, and appear exactly the same.
As for what people watch I'm fairly sure that if truth be known many Christians (professing or not) watch far worse than MWC or any other on my list and you won't find them listing everything they allow to happen or everything they watch. I believe and take you at your word that my list did surprise you but that is more a reflection of what you personally believe a Christian, in your mind, should do than it is of what is Biblically permissible for believers.
1 Corinthians 10:23 (NIV)
23 "Everything is permissible"--but not everything is beneficial. "Everything is permissible"--but not everything is constructive.
I'm not trying to get you to agree with me, you can have your own views. I'd much rather not debate or argue this but rather just discuss what various people like in the Entertainment industry and various TV Shows. I was actually trying to avoid the usual drama that is so pervasive on here. Again I'm not offended at your response, I understand it. I'm though not going to lay back and not address things that I'm labeled with that is incorrect and untrue. I'd expect the same from you or any other forum member.
