It's not an arguement. Its my opinion, and the rest of my post (that you did not seem to see) is the balance as I see it.

I did see it all. Your opinion is that TV is worse than Internet. MY opinion is that your opinion is old and irresponsible.

You may have seen it, but your understanding was faulty.

What part of "They both equally have the ability to cause sin and destruction. The issue is not the medium, but the lurker of the medium." states that I believe ANY medium is any better or worse that another. You can get porn on TV, and you can get porn on internet. If it is in your heart, you will go get porn one way or the other. Its not the medium, but what is in the heart.

Matt..it was the part about TV being passive and it just comes to you, but Internet has to be found. Perhaps I misread your feeling, but it seemed to me that you thought it worse than Internet.

TV is not worse than internet - nor is it equally as bad as the internet.. The internet is far worse...

Dear lord yes the internet is worse.

You can just type in beanie babies and get something you DON'T want to see.

Also, the internet is easier to HIDE what you are looking at.

Those who think TV is worse than the internet have been brainwashed from years of listening to preachers railing against TV!

They can claim entertainment verses information all they want but a saint said something that really sums it up and should leave no argument... The internet is far worse than TV just on the fact that the internet is interactive itself...
