I, for one, will not pooh pooh your contention. Media IS the main problem we face. School indoctrination is the SECOND biggest problem we face. This is not new. But how do we either 1) get control of media and it’s messaging? or 2) limit the damage it does? What I’ve determined is, we can’t. I have been without commercials in my home since 1998. Neither of my two kids has ever seen an ad for Audi cars nor for sponge bob action figures. Yet the majority of our population can’t seem to live without the scourge that is media, and most of their kids are inundated with commercialized propaganda getting them prepared, daily, to totally buy into the rest of the really big lies. And since this is the main source of ‘information’ they refer to as ‘news’, the conservative view is never heard from, unless it’s being mocked. After 40 years of this, we are simply out numbered. I cannot help but to think that if *most* people within the red counties on the electoral map were to systematically disconnect their cable and totally shut out the Media TOMORROW, there *might* finally be some measurable blow back and we’d start to see some change in media’s message tailored to conservatives to get us back buying their advertised crap. But sports and reality shows keep the masses tuned in and the cable bill always gets paid. TVs are on in the ‘background’ in most of our homes. Almost no one sees ANY problem with this. We are now at a serious cross roads where the media is facilitating and promoting socialists planning the total destruction of our liberties, and all most care about is the the next bowl game or what happens to the next apprentice. All of that reality leads me to believe there is simply no hope that we will ever regain sanity into our public discourse on a broad enough scale to make any difference. The Media completely owns the message. It’s all but a socialist’s play. And the show MUST go on. I disconnected my front row seat many years ago. I pray daily MANY more will do the same. But I am doubtful God will have much say about it until He reveals His final plans. No, our own fate is in our hands. Please pass the remote and the popcorn, apprentice is on reruns. ‘This war is lost!’

Bump for people who are still watching cable instead of ‘Agenda’...

Bingo! Television media would turn conservative almost overnight. But conservatives keep feeding the beast. I almost tear my hair out when "conservatives" ask me, when I tell them that I don't have t.v. at the house, "but what do you DO, then?"

He has already. He used prophets in the past to give warnings and has given us examples of how He acts. And there is a record of what He has said and done. All we need to know is already laid out for us to follow.
