Disclaimer: This post is not intended as a personal message to the four or five regular commenters to this blog.  This is in the probably unrealistic hope that more than that actually lurk here and just never comment. (Hint! Hint!) However it is also intended to "punish" the company by giving them negative press on my little corner of the blogosphere.  They certainly deserve to be shown for their true purposes!

In general we don't watch television.  Now we have videos that we watch on a television set, but we don't receive local channels or satellite.  So we are pretty much in the dark about the latest toys, fashions, sayings, etc.  I was probably the last person to know what the word "bling" meant! (I would have said the sound of an old fashioned telephone!)  If you don't know, email me and I will be the 2nd to last!   (BTW, if you dress, smell, talk, and play like the average person in a commercial you may need to consider our radical answer to being so influenced by the ungodly world of television: Deny yourself and your children TV for as much as possible, even to getting rid of it (gasp!) and increase daily consumption of God's Word as much as possible!    We are still seeking to take our own advice and do not claim to be perfect at it either!  Okay, off this soap box and on to the next!) 

One of the main reasons that we don't watch television, except the occasional news video clip on line, is because of the lack of moral programming.  We would enjoy the chance to watch (as we still do on occasion with our Little House and Andy Griffith series) but for the most part we don't want to promote or be exposed to the ungodly, mockery of what is good, in every modern movie, sitcom, cartoon, and soap opera.  Honestly I haven't watched a soap since I was in college and then only because my roommate taped them and I didn't always feel like leaving the room.  Unfortunately I still support this den of iniquity and I don't even realize.

Maybe I have a stomach ache and buy some Pepto, or I pick up a bottle of Pantene conditioner or buy Luvs for our newest addition!  Without even realizing it, I have supported the makers of one of the filthiest, most immoral "soaps" on television! I was just sent a notice by American Family Association to encourage me to boycott this company and sole producer of "As The World Turns."  Here is their reason:
