Game of Thrones

[Alive]

I may have mentioned it, but I find many commercials nearly as bad in content I dont want to see. Dont get me going on half time shows, which I have tuned out for years.

BTW…I hate modern commercials.

You’re absolutely not odd,I don’t watch it either….

That's not the point I was trying to make. More along the lines of 'From when did watching Game of Thrones become an acceptable thing in a Christian small group?' 'What's the small group leadership and church leadership doing?'

I do NOT have to view the show to know what it is about or know how bad the content is. My local news also did a blurb about the show's content. And then warned people about the high volume of violence, etc... at the tale end of their blurb said that viewer and parental discretion was strongly advised.

Just like movies, t.v shows also have ratings people can check. My local cable t.v guide “listing” shows a content rating next to the name of every program. It says what genre, what the show is about and whether a show has violence, nudity or strong language. And how much. And I can make a decision from there on whether to watch a specific show or not. The listing is quite helpful in this regard.

I don't own a TV in the first place lol

For me, the weather report on the news is my enemy. Like your husband, my wife couldn't live without the weather station. Every day, every week, every month, is planned around the weather. I told her look, if I go outside and I feel myself getting wet it's going to rain. I'm not going to worry about the weather because that is what it is, weather, and can change anytime it wants to. So let's have a barbecue this weekend. My wife then says, well first let me check and see what the weather says. My enemy....

While in the military, I spent a couple of years in the monsoons of the jungle,. I was there for two weeks before the sun ever made an appearance. The Rains in the USA aren't even close to that . I love weather, any kind every kind, which adds spice to my life, and breaks up the monotony. As a carpenter, when we got rained out, that was a Carpenters holiday. I actually believe that God designed the weather to keep us on our toes. Can't have a rainbow without the rain.

My post was not directed at you or speaking of you specifically.  I responded to something  else said in the thread.
