Those Crazy Christians Again

I turned on the television last night to relax a little and what do I find? Yet another popular show having the hypocritical christian reverend who is delving into the world of crime. This reverend just happened to be "pro-life" and spoke out very strongly against it. Unfortunately, he went too far, giving Christians once again a bad reputation. I have seen so many of these shows. Every time I see a show where someone claims to be a Christian, I get excited in anticipation that this might be the one who will tell the world that good, Jesus-loving, Bible-believing, sane, imperfect but trying Christians do exist in this world. Then once again I am reminded that this would be boring and would not produce enough drama to get good ratings. In case you were wondering, this kind of Christian really does exist just as hardworking families on public assistance exist and average good people exist. Who would want to hear about these people though? I for one would.

The goal of a television program is to sell stuff. Jesus teaches simplicity. The two don't mix.

By the way, Pat Robertson might not be sane, but he can leg press 1,000 pounds!

I gave up a long time ago expecting anything good to come from tv especially when it involves Christians. There are so many false versions of Christianity and false religions to choose from that it's hard for the entertainment industry to know what real Christianity looks like. I only wish they would give us some respect.
