All of present-day media is an assault on your senses... in one way or another you will be slammed with some kind of offensive and trashy crap on an hourly basis... listening to the radio, reading a publication, watching films or tv, etc... even the advertising (especially the advertising) is part of the full court press to destroy you and debase your soul.
Unless you are completely uncouth, low IQ, emotionally deformed, or pathologically and irreversibly degraded, their trash will sully your soul forever.
It’s more lurid, immature and immeasurably base all the time. Above all- keep it away from your children!
As long as I live I will be a reader... there is plenty in classical literature, history, etc. to keep me occupied until I die. I think I’ll leave with my soul a little more in tact than it would have been.
It's true but - I just wanted you to know that here in very rural and wayback-in-time northern Michigan the radio is like what I remember growing up with. They play the national anthem at roughly the same time each morning, give or take ten minutes. Conversation is slow=paced and easy going, and usually just local stuff. A dinner being provided for veterans or a local pastor talking about something about the church he leads.
Just wanted you to know there are still some places where life is good.
