Theaters are too expensive, but that is not the only reason why movie attendance is at a 20 year low.......<br /><br />I simply can't divorce Hollywood from its politics. I can't just go and enjoy a movie anymore. They insist on injecting their dogmas on to me. Before the movie I see nothing but politics from the actors, telling me how awful a person I am. During the movie it's an endless barrage of extremism masked as social justice. We don't have cable TV, and we rarely ever watch TV in our house. Our family is extremely selective about what we watch. I suspect we are not alone. <br /><br />Indeed, most Americans are turned off by the militant social justice warrior agenda being pushed on them by New York, Hollywood, and BBC news and entertainment executives via movies, sports, music, and tv shows:<br /><br />http://www.zerohedge.com/news/2015-09-06/espn-cutting-cord-or-political-turn<br /><br />Have faith and rejoice, Pastor Peters. Your daughter will soon stop watching Doctor Who out of disgust for yet another social justice agenda being pushed. She may turn to productive hobbies such as listening to confessional Lutheran podcasts or even start reading again (as I have done).<br /><br />The LCMS and its confessional Lutheran partner churches are indeed counter cultural!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6329600504016968888.post-18628682405369182192017-09-09T11:06:16.119-05:002017-09-09T11:06:16.119-05:00I think what pastor Peters is thinking about are B...I think what pastor Peters is thinking about are Bible studies like The Bad Girls of the Bible, parts 1 - ??? Trying to give equal time to men and women is bad for women as well as men. We approach the Scriptures recognizing how God used each of them without trying to make them something different than they were.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6329600504016968888.post-61329554290119071572017-09-09T11:04:01.276-05:002017-09-09T11:04:01.276-05:00I agree fully with what Pastor Peters has said her...I agree fully with what Pastor Peters has said here. We are surrounded by abundant foolishness seeking to impose modern ideas of equality on a history that has never been that way. There is a reason why history is what it is, and in part that reason is that men and women ARE DIFFERENT. We deny that today to our own peril.<br /><br />Can you envision Georgia Washington crossing the Delware with skirts flying in the wind? Or,m to be fair, we should probably cast Joan of Arc as a gay boy. After all, fair is fair!!<br /><br />Pr.

We enlarge female characters in scripture to give them equal status with men... Like who? Mary? Deborah? Your final paragraph may describe an agenda of our media culture, but to use a sweeping "we" to include all Americans weakens your argument. From a previous post, some prefer TLH but their hearts are not in it...
