Obviously you have not studied many Royal families throughout history or you would have known the answer to the one I highlighted is yes!

we waste so much energy on this and man, it's so simple...

lets spend energy getting folks right with God and teaching how to maintain their walk with God..all this other stuff WORKS ITSELF OUT
You bring up the core of where our focus should be; however, reality forces the frivolous issues of what media is exceptable because of agendas that are driven by men.

The only relevancy regarding the TV versus the internet issue is that starting this year and mainly across the board for all computer manufacturers in 2008 all PC will have a built-in TV tuner factory installed in order to stay competitive in the market.

It is true that most of the network programming can be viewed on the internet currently, but only after the regularly scheduled programs on television were played. Television as we know it today will go the way of the record player and VCR.

Technology keeps on advancing and so change will continue. The question remains, what year will the resolution be brought to the floor to officially allow the PC once they are fully equipped to function as a television? Next year?

If you don't want a television you better be prepared to stock up on used computers for spare parts in order to avoid buying a new one.
