Essentially that is why a Democrat can look at Bill Clinton and think he was a great President. They were constantly bombarded with media that fitted their own preprogrammed nueral pathways - Bill's spindoctors were also quite good at using words that triggered familiarity etc.
This is also why so many of our kids are so negative and angry most of the time - what they constantly put before their eyes and ears is hatefull bitter music and many monstrous movies that constantly reinforce their negative veiws. Any incoming information is thus filtered through their predisposed nueral pathways.
Funny that the scriptures tell us to be transformed by the renewing of your mind. How do we do this? Thinking on good things and studying the word.
God Bless

BTW I preached on this at a youth service - It's amazing how this can change the attitude of "it's not doing any harm to "I better watch what I put into my mind.
