Back to those red light violations. They are in the traffic code, but they don't mean anything either by this errant logic.

I have never stepped foot on a Golf Course. This sidesteps the issue. As usual.

The clause from the AOF that all UPCI ministers attest to in the AS:

We wholeheartedly disapprove of our people indulging in any activities which are not conducive to good Christianity and godly living, such as theaters, dances, mixed bathing or swimming, women cutting their hair, make-up, any apparel that immodestly exposes the body, all worldly sports and amusements, and unwholesome radio programs and music. Furthermore, because of the display of all these evils on television, we disapprove of any of our people having television sets in their homes. We admonish all of our people to refrain from any of these practices in the interest of spiritual progress and the soon coming of the Lord for His church

Are these evils not displayed on the internet???? There isn't a ban because of a tuner ... or a receiver that receives television frequencies ...

the purpose of the ban is because that it displays THESE EVILS ... yet the logic doesn't apply to a tv type program transmitted on a DVD player or a computer...????

and yet ... ministers can send their young people to SIX FLAGS ... and this is not a blatant violation????

It would be I guess if it was transmitted there. I have NEVER watched a dvd or a television program over my computer. I guess I could figure out how but I have no desire.
