Apocalypse 2:9 I know thy tribulation and thy poverty, but thou art rich: and thou art blasphemed by them that say they are Jews and are not, but are the ѕуηαgσgυє of Satan.

--- Poverty. He was poor in temporal things, but rich in grace and merits. --- Thou art blasphemed by those false teachers, who call themselves Jews and Israelites, and the chosen people of God, waiting for the coming of the Messias, but are not to be looked upon as such; having refused to own their true Messias, Jesus Christ, they are the ѕуηαgσgυє of Satan, the greatest enemies of the true faith.

Again, I just think it's a little much when people condemn others for watching a television show which they've never seen and have little evidence to back themselves up.

Did someone condemn you here? Or is a show being condemned?

I condemn the show, not walty-is Walty on the show? likely, no...even so, is he at fault if so for the characters and content?

I like somethings that I should not watch, but I have to bear that fault or sin.soooo, walty, no one is trashing you for being you or watching the Office....just trashing the Office show itself...

Perhaps someone should alert Benedict XVI to this.

I just know took a look at the thread at FE. It all just sounds like to me that the point he/she is trying to make is that we have to re-evaluate what is acceptable. Like the example given about tattoos. (It's forbidden in Leviticus--pretty sure--, but I don't think it would constitute a mortal sin, depending on the tattoo at least).

This is included with a number of forbidden things including not eating anything with blood and not cutting one's hair or shaving one's beard. Do you follow those practices as well?

One is obliged to still follow the Old Testament, concerning morals that is, after all in Leviticus it forbids bestiality along with other moral laws. I suppose you could argue that tattoos don't fall under that scope.

Our bodies are temples of God, where as long as a person is in a state of sanctifying grace the Holy Trinity dwells within them.

If when we die we have to answer our Judge concerning idle words, which harm no one, what will we say when we have essentially graffiti on our bodies?

I'm not offended by modest or religious tattoos, it's merely that tattooing one's self is a pagan practice.

Quote from: Leviticus 19:28

You shall not make any cuttings in your flesh for the dead, nor shall you make in yourselves any figures or marks: I am the Lord

Quote from: Matto

We would be much better off if aliens came down from the sky and stole all of our televisions.

Correction: "We would be much better off if angels came down from the sky and destroyed all of our televisions."

Quote from: Walty

If you're going to avoid anything which has an immoral character (despite even whether they are shown in a positive or negative light) then you certainly can't watch Shakespeare, Little House on the Prairie, It's a Wonderful Life, or even movies about Fatima, Lourdes, and the life of our Lord.

Some of those you are right about and others you seem to miss the point that the MORAL of the story is what counts.

Does "The Office" condemn sin and promote virtue? I think not. I complacently embraces mediocrity and sin.

Quote from: Roman Catholic

I can't see why you should not be given a fair shake here either. Whatever you post here should determine how people here react to you.

Yep.

Quote from: scipio_a

The rest of this thread is quite humorous, I see the word modesty being thrown around and am quite certain that most of you using it have no idea what it really means or what contitutes it. If you care to find out you can always do a search for modesty discussions at FE, I have made it quite plain...

Your avatar at FE says more than enough to know that you would have UTTERLY BOTCHED any attempt at describing Catholic Modesty. I type this without even having to read your posts. And what Catholic publicly uses the word "j**z"? You show horrible manners, a seared conscience and a potty mouth.

I just checked one of your posts, and the picture to which you said

Quote

And scipio_a thinks it's too long...LOL

No really, I think it is pretty and no need to cover anything...unless you walk into Church and need a little sweater over it (cardigan)

was INCREDIBLY immodest. Knees and below were showing and the neckline was right down to the cleavage level, not to mention the whole upper arm and shoulder were bare and her head was completely uncovered revealing her long hair... Her entire demeanor was geared towards exciting male arousal (and she knows it).

My suspicions are confirmed, you have a seared conscience.

Quote from: Belloc

Scipio, hidden..if I want distasteful posts, lacking in Catholic mindset,will go back to FE...NOT!!!

Belloc, you said it. As far as her position on distributism, she is a crank. Distributism is the OPPOSITE of communism and theft, and is in fact very similar, if not the same as, how many, if not most people are portrayed as living in the Bible.

Thanks for trying to correct the pothead, for we who have faith in Christ ARE THE TRUE JEWS!!!!

Belloc is in defiance of Pope Leo XIII who says that ' Catholics are the True Romans'.

The Forum should take note that i would not even have brought this up but for Belloc's absurd comments re: St Luke and Fr Torquemada being Judaics.

I have never seen the show but from the little I have read about it, it does not look like a suitable show to me. Considering that The Office is a modern tv comedy show and not a Shakespearean morality tale, I would be very surprised if there are not more problems with it besides those indicated here:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Office_(U.S._TV_series)
Michael Scott, regional manager of the Scranton branch of the Dunder Mifflin Paper Company, feels he is the life of the office; his employees feel otherwise. His former co-manager, sales representative Jim Halpert is newly married to the former receptionist turned sales representative, Pam Halpert (née Beesly). Their relationship comes after three seasons of friendship laced with romantic tension.

The accounting department features the uptight Angela Martin, who wishes to keep things orderly and make sure situations remain as serious as possible; Kevin Malone, a sardonic, overweight man who revels in juvenile humor and is addicted to gambling and M&Ms; and the patient Oscar Martinez, whose ɧoɱosɛҳųαƖity and Mexican American heritage make him a favorite target for Michael's off-hand comments. ...

A story arc at the start of the fifth season has Holly Flax transferred to the office as Toby's replacement. She acts as a love interest for Michael, as they share very similar personalities. However, Holly is transferred away after corporate discovers that Michael and Holly are involved, resulting in their break up.

Former main characters no longer part of the show include Pam's ex-fiance, Roy Anderson, who left the show in the third season after nearly assaulting Jim in the workplace; and Michael's former love interest—and former Vice President for Regional Sales for Dunder Mifflin -- Jan Levinson, who broke up with Michael in season four and subsequently became pregnant via sperm donation. Both characters returned for brief appearances in season five, but neither was seen in the sixth.

Half of the things that you have highlighted here are mere mentionings of two people being in a relationship. I'm not sure how that's sinful. The first couple mentioned get married and have a baby.

There is a ɧoɱosɛҳųαƖ character but he never prostelytizes about it. It's more or less there as something that he gets ragged on for.

Again, I just think it's a little much when people condemn others for watching a television show which they've never seen and have little evidence to back themselves up.

Why would God approve of a show that has gαy characters in it? Should someone watch a tv show that has a Satan worshiper in it just because he never talks about worshipping Satan? It's now official: The Office should be avoided AT ALL COSTS.

If you're going to avoid anything which has an immoral character (despite even whether they are shown in a positive or negative light) then you certainly can't watch Shakespeare, Little House on the Prairie, It's a Wonderful Life, or even movies about Fatima, Lourdes, and the life of our Lord.

You know very well that's different. Movies, for instance, that are based on the life of Our Lord are supposed to have immoral characters. I'm talking about things that are intended to promote immorality. The Office is clearly promoting the gαy movement by having an openly gαy character on that show. Let me give you a small list of tv shows that promote immorality. And remember, this is only a small list. There's lots of other bad tv shows out there as well.

The Office
The Simpsons
The Kardashians
Modern Family
Family Guy
The Bachelor
Avatar (cartoon series, movies are bad too)
House
Desperate Housewives

All of these and many other tv shows should be avoided. I gaurantee you that if you were to ask God if He was ok with these shows, He would say "No" to everyone one of them.

Having a gαy character doesn't necessarily mean the show is a front for the LGBT.

Just another typical modern show that helps inoculate the masses from thinking that the perversion is abbhorent.

Keep 'em lauging about it, keep 'em sympathizing with the characters, keep the immoral behaviour appearing to be normal. The same goes for all the other innuendos and "relationships" in most modern shows and movies.

Yes, unfortunately a list of the modern tv shows and movies that are suitable would be a very short list indeed.

And you can bet that when the "good TV shows" air, one of those bad shows in the list will be inculcated in the commercial breaks.

I do not have the time nor the energy to read all of this right now but I have to say that I love, love, love the humor of The Office. There is very little swearing -- I can't remember any off the top of my head, the love story between Jim and Pam was exceptionally well done with no sɛҳuąƖ under or overtones -- that's actually what people loved about it, other "love" stories that were strange were in fact portrayed as strange, modesty is a secondary issue as it is an office and that's the general garb.

The Office expressly portrays how strange behavior is actually strange and that is the crux of the humor. They highlight ridiculously socially unacceptable or awkward behavior (that we've all experienced in some way, shape or form, so we can relate and that's what makes it hilarious), and show it up for what it is.

But I did get uncomfortable when they started developing the gαy character. They use Michael to portray "homophobic" views towards Oscar as being socially unacceptable. Then they use other characters to encourage Oscar, seek to "understand" him and even set him up. I wish they had not done that because then it isn't funny anymore. That's when you know they are inoculating, as a PP mentioned. It's a tricky, tricky world out there.

Then we get the battle of the conscience...do I allow myself to be entertained by this 90% good and try to ignore the 5% bad or do I give it up altogether? When it comes to how great that 90% is, it's a tough question to answer. But then I look at the 5% that I'm supporting and I know what I have to do. :cry:
