The Holy Spirit is grieved as our character and the church deteriorates from this subtle obsession of Christians with entertainment created by an unregenerate and often drug inspired put on by the world. Television promotes materialism and not character. The pursuit of materialism is as empty and is as Solomon declared in his writings. Television speaks of the world and elevates the selfish flesh nature to being the star. He inspires us to godliness, not materialism.
Vanity is the sin of a cosmetic christian word of today.
Television has powerful impact on the thinking of the viewer. It programs us to accept the values of the world and not the values of the Bible. People are unconsciously programmed to accept the values it leaves imprinted on the mind of adults and children alike - but especially the minds of impressionable children. Television presents fantasy as reality. It makes fantasy real.
