I haven't watched TV in months. I've only got rabbit ears and only recieve two channels. And there is nothing on them worth seeing, so I don't watch. I haven't even seen the news in months. The sad part is I don't really miss it. I wish I could get discovery and history channels and CBC for hockey. That's about all I've watch. Except maybe space.

I always say to my self that if ever i would get rich, i would absolutely give my people a free 1 year subscription of cable networks on their every houses. and if ever they don't have television, of course that includes the gift package in case. The idea of it is:
1. To teach them what the truth in life has to offer them.
2. To expand their knowledge and inspire back to others.
3. To show them how amazing humans can be.
4. To balance their way of thingking so that they couldn't be easily corrupted by anyone through hearsays.
5. To let them explore most specially the childrens, co'z not all can afford to travel around the world and got to see and know people and places around the globe.
I grew up with having television on my side, but my viewing is only limited, you know parents
. some of my knowledge came from the television, though fornications online or in televisions are not as worse like we have today in my time. But that's up to the parent's on how they guide their childrens. In third world countries like ours, we don't give big deal to much on televisions.but funny, we are known to be as a one of the lkargest consumers of mobile phones around the globe, and we are listed in a below poverty line country hmnn.???of course i would give them the exact product and i'm sorry folks i'm not going to give money. because my real goal is for the children..I'm really feeling sorry about those poor kids coz here in our country they only got to view 5 local channels in poverty zones, unlike if you can afford here a cable installations you are consider as at the level of the middle class. We'll all of it are variety channels; 1 channel is from the government, 1 is independent which is the oldest, and 3 are affilliated in a terrorist organization. the two of
this companies are using the same strategic method; spreading their company-residence antenna's for free to every community that they claimed to be their terretories. most of that places are in the urban, rural poverty areas. i mean thjose communities is only viewing a single reception channel, imagine viewing a t.v. with only 1 channel for the rest of your viewing times. and these companies are the two top broadcasting company in our country.
when i went to our province at my fathers place for a vacation, it's a small and obscure community actually, I have to watch a single channelled television in a month. I said to my father that i would buy him a cable satellite antenna's so that he could enjoy atleast his life in viewing t.v.'s specially his favorite show which is National Geographic channel.. rather than watching such animistic, manipulative,paganic, and non-christianity practices on televisions such as war-mongering,bullying,instead of turning the other cheeks, vain motivations,stupidity and worse of all manipulating the viewers to disregard such individualisms. I mean what's wrong of being an individual? we are all humans!
whats make me sad is that my people are force to live a life with what this broadcasting companies including AM/Fm bands would want them to live and think at and i can see very clearly the effects to each and everyone around me due to this type of practices that they are making. i mean the impact is increasing rapidly..P.s.
I'm also talking about the effects on physical and sub-luminal this poor human beings are gaining..
24 For the name of God is blasphemed among the Gentiles through you, as it is written. Roman2:24
There is none that understandeth, there is none that seeketh after God. 12 They are all gone out of the way, they are together become unprofitable; there is none that doeth good, no, not one.
13 Their throat is an open sepulchre; with their tongues they have used deceit; the poison of asps is under their lips:
14 Whose mouth is full of cursing and bitterness:
15 Their feet are swift to shed blood:
16 Destruction and misery are in their ways:
17 And the way of peace have they not known:
18 There is no fear of God before their eyes.
Romans 3:11-18
I corinthians 14:6-12
6 Now, brethren, if I come unto you speaking with tongues, what shall I profit you, except I shall speak to you either by revelation, or by knowledge, or by prophesying, or by doctrine?
7 And even things without life giving sound, whether pipe or harp, except they give a distinction in the sounds, how shall it be known what is piped or harped?
8 For if the trumpet give an uncertain sound, who shall prepare himself to the battle?
9 So likewise ye, except ye utter by the tongue words easy to be understood, how shall it be known what is spoken? for ye shall speak into the air.
10 There are, it may be, so many kinds of voices in the world, and none of them is without signification.
11 Therefore if I know not the meaning of the voice, I shall be unto him that speaketh a barbarian, and he that speaketh shall be a barbarian unto me.
12 Even so ye, forasmuch as ye are zealous of spiritual gifts, seek that ye may excel to the edifying of the church.
36 Thou fool, that which thou sowest is not quickened, except it die: 37 And that which thou sowest, thou sowest not that body that shall be, but bare grain, it may chance of wheat, or of some other grain:
38 But God giveth it a body as it hath pleased him, and to every seed his own body.
39 All flesh is not the same flesh: but there is one kind of flesh of men, another flesh of beasts, another of fishes, and another of birds.
40 There are also celestial bodies, and bodies terrestrial: but the glory of the celestial is one, and the glory of the terrestrial is another.
41 There is one glory of the sun, and another glory of the moon, and another glory of the stars: for one star differeth from another star in glory.
42 So also is the resurrection of the dead. It is sown in corruption; it is raised in incorruption:
43 It is sown in dishonour; it is raised in glory: it is sown in weakness; it is raised in power:
44 It is sown a natural body; it is raised a spiritual body. There is a natural body, and there is a spiritual body.
45 And so it is written, The first man Adam was made a living soul; the last Adam was made a quickening spirit.
I corinthians 15:36-45 kjv

OMG..I had a roommate one time that was hooked on three of them. When she was gone to work she would record them and watch them later. I tried disparately to break her of it, but people like that feel like it is almost their responsibility to know what is going on. I did not have the patience to sit through one of them. After the first commercial I was like ok...now I need to go to bed..and it was the middle of the day... There were some cute guys though, but way too much emotional drama I could not get at the time. I thought that it was silly that they were always setting themselves up or getting in obviously bad situations...really gross to me. I felt like I had to open up the windows, open the doors, and blare some loud music to wipe out the heaviness of it all. When ever I go to someone's house and they have it on I feel like I am in a nursing facility and I really need to go outside. I bet there are some nursing homes that could benefit from my WII and my kids after they have been cooped up inside all day from the rain.
Personally I would go a step further and say that soap operas are the single worst things on television and if I only had the power to abolish them!
Most programmes I don't particularly like I can still see some value in, for instance a lot of comedy shows sadly rely on crude sexual remarks to get people laughing so I avoid most of them, but even the worst ones sometimes have good clean comedy so they have a good side and a bad side......soap operas......I've seen enough in my life to be convinced there is nothing positive in them.
Everything they build they build to knockdown, they are like a chronicle of self-inflicted human misery, I genuinely pity people who feel a soap opera mirrors their own life, to me the only good that comes from them existing is to remind us to keep trying to be better or that grey repetitive cycle of pathetic human behaviour will become reality, and we are already too close to it.
I hate soap operas rant finished.

I don't watch much TV right now, my family has Dish Network, we have the 150 channels, or however many it is. I just don't like TV, for numerous reasons. I feel insulted when they put on the beauty products, "You must! Look like us!", my mother watches TV for a bit, but I mostly spend my time on the internet. Not sure if that is a good substitute either.
