In my original post I said that I "respect their position". The reason is, these people are only seeking holiness. It saddens me when people (especially christians) make fun of these people and call them legalistic etc. They are living in the way that they believe God wants them to. They are just trying to please God. There were things that I wasn't doing in my first year of my walk with God because of ignorance or thinking it "unnecessary". I could have made fun of those that did do these things because of my ignorance. I would have been wrong.

they havent stopped making good movies... James Dobson said that statistics show that people are acually starting to make family oriented movies b/c they sell so well.... just to let you know

Have you seen what they pass for family entertainment?

Bare in mind that Hollywoods obsession with "reality" spills over into G and PG movies. Remember Buster Bunny and his lesbian neighbors?

If they can sneak that crap into childrens programming , they can surely slime you with a lot of subliminal pucky in the movies.

PG means Parental Grief

go to the casino to eat, b/c eating is ok in there as long as you dont gamble.

If I want to do a "get away" with my husband to Las Vegas for a weekend, see a show and have a little fun playing at the tables, what's wrong with that? Where does it say that that is "sin"? What if I have a drink while I'm there? Is that a sin, or is only two drinks a sin? Are the cards a "sin", or only the dice?

As for movies - I have a conviction that the violent ones are satanic. I'm talking about movies like "Final Destination" and "Scream" etc. I believe in my heart they are satanic. I have a 14 year old that would love to watch those and thinks I'm "mean" because I won't let him. Yet, I'll sit down and watch "The Patriot" or "Braveheart" with him, and he says I'm a hypocrite because they are violent. When I try to explain that historically accurate films that show historic violence are way different than brutal, violent death for the fun of it, it falls flat. I can never find the words to say what I believe. Sigh.

I can remember the look on my son's face at the Imax. Spiderman as big as a building. That's the first time he ever refused popcorn. It was awesome to be there for such a climactic moment for him.

WOW!!!! That sounds sooooooooooo cool!!!!!

Last movie I saw was the Amityville Horror just last week... went to see it with my wife, and I thought it was a pretty good movie.. it's supposed to be based on a true story, too.

My understanding is that the so called 'real' story was admitted as a hoax later, at least that's what we learnt in English (if my recollection is correct). I saw it on Saturday... it was pretty good though I was expecting a scary movie and it was very tame. Though I don't scare very easily at all, all the so called 'scary' movies are a walk in the park.

I thought the scariest part of Amityville was when the black cat jumped onto the window sill

I didn't find any of it scary! The same with The Grudge re-make though... I was laughing through a lot of it whereas the rest of the people in there were silent as anything and my boyfriend was squeezing my hand so hard he had very detailed imprints of each of my rings on his hand!!

I prefer to wait for the movies to come out to Blockbuster and then rent it and go home and make myself comfy and watch it.
