"Few jokes" and "silly shows"?
You don't watch much television or go to movie theaters do you? As for not being very religion, it's like pregnancy, you either believe or you don't.

I'm not trying to convert you,but you are defiantly to my left ideologically. I've checked out your posts. I'm qute sure that if you put your mind to it you could easily show me a thing or two, but I disagree with you on this topic.

Perhaps you can point me to a show that bashes gays, or shows how partial birth abortion is performed. As for blacks being bashed, are you talking about Amos and Andy. The last time I checked that show is forbidden. Since you deny being a liberal, maybe you can tell us what your stand on abortion and gay marriage is?

Pro-life, since you asked. I'm pro-choice BEFORE conception. But too many people can't control themselves. Gay marriage? I live in NYC so I know and deal with gay people all the time. Most of them could give a rat's patute (sp?) about the issue. The MSM only shows you the small percentage who actually push the issue.

But hold my feet to the fire and I will say this: While I think gay couples should be able to have some of the equal protections such as tax breaks, estate planning considerations that hetero couples have, I do not think the church will or should recognize their unions. And that is totally up to the church.

As for blacks being bashed, have you watched the WB or UPN lately? They bash themselves mercilessly. But I guess it's better when blacks bash blacks and gays bash gays.

Religion does get it from all sides, but many of the same writers who come up with this stuff would consider themselves religious. It's just work to them. Just like it's entertainment to us. I admit that my lack of religious upbringing would lead me to be less offended than you by all of this.

And I think I need to add that for the past 3 months I have not owned a tv. Just a laptop for the DVD's. So I'm a little off my tv watching.
