So, the question should be "should I entertain myself with that which God calls sinful?" I say the answer is "no." I agree.If it's sin in the name of entertainment then it is still sin.

But how can it be beneficial for a Christian to watch a movie that condons immorality,murder, deception or what have you? Just because it is fiction doesn't make it right, in my opinion.

Gal 1:4 Who gave himself for our sins, that he might deliver us from this present evil world, according to the will of God and our Father: Joh 15:19 If ye were of the world, the world would love his own: but because ye are not of the world, but I have chosen you out of the world, therefore the world hateth you.
