Television: Shoving It Down Our Throats!

We once were a people largely united under what was right and what was wrong. It was a nation under God. 
However, there has been a RELENTLESS attack upon God and upon godliness. The evidences of the spiritual/moral slide has been lengthy and increasingly the “chickens have come home to roost.” Americans love their televisions, stories and sitcoms and with the passing years knowing the difference between right and wrong has eroded through the concerted campaign of Hollywood. Network television began to shove homosexuality down our throats years ago: 
America’s most powerful influence makers have intensified their public relations blitz aimed at convincing Americans that homosexual behavior is normal and more specifically, that homosexual “marriage” should be legalized. 
In what USA Today has called the “gayest TV season in memory,”* network programmers – subsidized by well-known companies – have become more and more bold in their homosexual advocacy. 
“It is amazing to see two gay weddings within a month on two big sitcoms. It seems like they’re trying to push some buttons. Even in the gay community, a full-on-same-sex marriage is a minority kind of thing,” said Rob Greenblatt, executive vice president of development for Fox. “It is 1996, and little by little everybody has gotten a little less afraid of the old taboos.” [Taken from Washington Times, 1/25/96; USA Today, 1/31/96, AFA Journal March 1996] 
There is a God in the universe who created all things. The very breath we breathe, the sun that warms, the gravity that holds things together, the seasons, the rules of nature, natural law are all shaped by God.

Fagburn doesn't usually like to give jerks like this the oxygen of publicity - and it's hardly worth noting when some professional nutty homophobe says something nutty and homophobic - but this made me chuckle.
Here they are last month on how Glee - “a gruel of illicit sexuality, secular humanist ideology, and the promotion of homosexuality and deviant behavior” - is "poisoning our youth".
And a few days ago on The New Normal's Sly Indoctrination...

"A propaganda-piece in the guise of a sitcom. However, in the hour-long season finale creator/producer Ryan Murphy pulled out all the stops to proselytize viewers into accepting the debased gay agenda as “normal.”
Promote gay marriage?  Check.
Champion homosexual parenting?  Check.
Undermine the church and mock God and His righteousness?  Double check."


* Can't find this online, just seems to be quoted a lot on Christian websites. 

Update: New Findings from Ipsos MediaCT TV Dailies Study Shows TV’s Impact on America’s Gay Marriage Debate - sounds a bit simplistic, but such is so often the way with such studies.
