I'm just basing that statement on the fact that HBO has just announced that it will be producing and airing "the raunchiest TV show ever". Now that's a claim to fame isn't it? The really sad part is, that no matter how raunchy or pornographic the show is, it will have millions of viewers and many of which will be Christians. The show will rise in popularity and every time anyone speaks out against the broadcast, they will be labeled a self-righteous prude, or an intolerant judgemental bigot.
I wonder just how many professing Christians watch and enjoy "The Sopranos"? Shouldn't that be some kind of an indicator that something is rotten in Denmark? Personally, my family and I do not have cable or satellite television in our home. Believe it or not, we don't watch the local network stations either. We either can't stand the content of the shows or we grow weary watching all of the stupid commercials.
I also wonder what would happen if every Christian family cancelled their subscriptions to cable and satellite television, for let's say, three to six months. Would it have an affect on those media avenues? Would they take notice and try to improve their programming? My gut tells me probably not. My gut also tells me that at no point in time would enough Christians be willing to do such a thing!
