An Amish elder man sat in a public briefing. There were 52 reporters there who wanted to ask questions about all things Amish.
"What makes the Amish different from all other denominations?" one reporter asked.
The elder scratched his beard and asked: "Who in here owns a television?"
52 hands went up.
"Who in here thinks that there are questionable things on television that might erode the family?"
52 hands went up.
"Now, who is going to go home and get rid of their television?"
No hands went up.
"That," the elder said "is the difference."
True story.
And this is exactly the reason I have a problem with those who see wrong, or see sin or see questionable situations and don't change. This is exactly the reason I am a member of Christ's church. Because it's all about changing into, not skating around, Him.

You are so right, friend, but all I can think is: "No "24", Lost, Dexter (one of the worst offenders!) and so on!
Keep convicting me.
