he then proceeded to reassure me that its just tv producers who try to juice up their stories with something interesting. then i asked, 'why do we find that interesting?'
i'd like to think it is the stereotype of the minority that the majority has somewhat got wind of, and the tv producers and scriptwriters are making a critique on society by airing these flimsy shows. but the perennial egg-and-chicken question of this generation shall be:
"did society come first, or did TV come first?"
i do not know who's making a critique of whom, and who's influenced by whom anymore. I think TV is society, and whatever perversion or marred values we see on the screen, that is what we get in the world! Maybe this doesnt affect you, the numbed and used-to-it reader of this post, or maybe you, like me, are over-reacting. But more and more i feel the resistance.. the starkness of light against darkness to be so prominent. It's like someone took a snapshot of society, and photoshopped the image to > extreme contrast > black and white.
Its becoming clearer and clearer now,
if the church has any redeeming to do,
the time is now.
