  •  Not to mention all the years it robs one of any chance to take one's sanctity seriously. I seem to recall in my youth, watching during summer vacations hours upon hours of anything that moved, and was not x-rated.

     If I become any more scrupulous about the thing, I may give it up entirely. Sorry to say, for now, it's virtually the only thing I'm fit for recreation-wise. My head protests vehemently at anything else anymore.  :cry: Although even then I seem to (happily) watch less of it now than ever before.

     Unless you count videos in general... I've been watching an awful lot of H.E. Bishop Fellay. Though I doubt he's done my soul one wit of harm.

     :popcorn:
    I renounce any and all of my former views against what the Church through Pope Leo XIII said, "This, then, is the teaching of the Catholic Church ...no one of the several forms of government is in itself condemned, inasmuch as none of them contains anythi

  • So that no one misunderstands you, you might want to mention something about what you watch, or what your standards are for "legitimate Catholic movie viewing"

    For all they know, you're watching network TV every night *grin*

  •  lol Okay... For the information of the general public, Dulcamara watches no "television" at all... unless it happens to be on (at someone else's house), and being a moving picture and me having ADD, I cannot help where my eyeballs go... I usually watch, generally speaking, old black and white movies (or movies that were black and white, now recolored). I also fancy Lord of the Rings, though I object to some of what they did to it in Hollywood.

     I would not be surprised if there comes a day when I give the vile box up altogether. Though if (or when?) it happens I dare say my proficiency in the Japanese language will plummet to an all time low.

  • It's certainly easy these days to avoid TV, since the content is so base and stupid -- though I'm sure they have some series out there to appeal to those with a few brains left.

    I'd say it's not worth it to sift through the garbage -- because even the stuff that isn't rock-stupid is still filled with errors and the spirit of the world.
