(Thread: TV So Terrible!)
JUST THE TITLES OF SOME OF THE PROGRAMS HAD US IN COMPLETE HORROR AND SHOCK! I AM NOT KIDDING!
So I found out how to block and we ended up blocking 30 or MORE of the 60 channels we get.
But here's the most horrible shocker of all.........sometimes they put these freebie movies in for a day or so in hopes to get you to buy (LAUGH....as if we would) ANYWAY.......they are PURE EVIL! I MEAN PUUUUUUUUURE EVIL! Every one is so evil.......last night......I was watching one of the programs and this PG 13 had FRONTAL NUDITY and the actual S act! This is not acting, and these actors are all having S. in front of whoever watches it. The saddest thing about it is......I CAN TURN IT OFF>.....but what of the young kids with no parents and no one watching out for what they tune in on tv? I mean, we don't pay for any of this ...it's coming on free. I asked them to stop it but they don't stop it.

PG-13 in your rating system means it's unsuitable for anyone under 13, right? So what horrible programme did Rachael59 watch? How much nudity was there? Isn't it interesting that only adults seem to be traumatised by nudity, and never teens?
"the actual S act!"
Sadomasochism?
"This is not acting, and these actors are all having S"
And they actually kill people in action movies!
Rachael needs to quit watching the CPR training films without her meds and her glasses. It's not doggie style, damn you, it's the Heimlich!!!
@Smith:
You may be on to something. If you take every other letter of each capitalized 'word', you come up with 'TOOPUCAIN AEMENSCI'. Clearly she is trying to send a message to Tupac beyond the grave. I believe that was his name in the original Latin.
By "SEX!!!!!", they most likely mean something NON-sexual, like a kiss, or - Lord above - holding hands.
Rule 1 of Arguing with Fundies: it is always good to understand what the Fundie means by a particular word.
The saddest thing about it is......I CAN TURN IT OFF>.....
Of course it makes you sad. It means that you can't claim to be a victim.
...but what of the young kids with no parents and no one watching out for what they tune in on tv?
I'm assuming you're talking about kids whose parents aren't home. In that case you can use two methods to safeguard what they see.
1. Use the lock function on your cable remote control to block channels you feel aren't appropriate.
or
2. Use the V-chip in the television itself to block programs and channels of your choice.
FRONTAL NUDITY and the actual S act! This is not acting, and these actors are all having S.
Ignorant dolt. Censorship laws specifically require that all sexual material in non-pornographic media (which certainly covers PG-13) is simulated, not authentic.
Oh noes! Nekkid bodies are teh debbil! Won't someone think of the little chilluns?
Sheesh. Do you know how reactionary and silly you sound? Oh, you're from Rapture Ready. You probably don't.
I totally understand you. Only yesterday I turned on the TV and there it was: people EATING in front of a camera! It was not acting, they were all actually putting food in their mouths and CHEWING! What is this world coming to. I'm mean, putting perfectly natural acts in a PG 13 programme?
"I couldn't believe the horror! I watched it for an hour and they never once mentioned Jesus! Then I changed the channel and watched some more nudity, hoping someone would talk about God, but no one did. I was forced to watch several hours of nudity and sex as I waited in vain for it to get more pure and holy!"
but what of the young kids with no parents and no one watching out for what they tune in on tv?
Her kids have no parents? Who wrote this, a ghost? Or does she just want to stick her judgmental, holier-that-thou nose into how other people raise their kids?
I too block offensive channels. However, my definition of offensive is "being a fucking sports channel". Damnit, ESPN, why are you so prolific? Why have an entire golf network? GAHHHH.
Um! Anyway...goddamnit, JUST SAY SEX. Also, please watch the following shows:
The Wire
Dexter
Battlestar Galactica
Because I wanna see your head explode. =D Also, they rock.
Has the S -word become so offensive, it cannot be written or said? Way to go, fundies. Turn all people into anti-human, anti-social, anti-sex religion drones... That's god damn sickening to just think of.
FundieBasher: "PG-13 with frontal nudity? What did she do, show her ankles?"
Probably. This would explain the euphemistic use of "S": Racheal is offended and disturbed (and possibly turned on) by the sight of a woman's shins.
"I was watching one of the programs and this PG 13 had FRONTAL NUDITY and the actual S act! This is not acting, and these actors are all having S. in front of whoever watches it."
Holy hell. You people really can't tell fiction from reality...
I don't need you to tell me what is okay to watch. When I was little, my Mom didn't need your help, either. Here's a radical concept, let people watch whatever the fuck they want to. It's not your fucking job to be the government censor.
So you've never 'had S', before?
And by the way, it's called sex. We all do it. Well, maybe not you.
And some of us even allow ourselves to be honest with ourselves and admit that we LIKE it! Oh goodness.
Repeat after me:
"Nudity: Normal and good
Violence: unnatural and bad"
Anything else you need to know, Racheal59? Oh yeah, death cults are also bad for your health, particularly your mental health.

ANYWAY.......they are PURE EVIL! I MEAN PUUUUUUUUURE EVIL! Every one is so evil.......

Yeah, they sure put Hitler, Mao, Stalin, God and Pol Pot in their place, don't those eeeevil TV producers?
And why, pray tell, should we listen to someone who continues to pay for a service they don't use or "approve of"?
If you don't like TV? Don't get cable!!!
"I asked them to stop it but they don't stop it."
Talking to the people on your tv screen never works, you know.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
