UPCI Ministers and Televison

I relize I may get blasted by many or ignored for starting this thread.

This thread is not about standards but about telling the truth.

If you are a licensed minister with the UPCI and have a televison PLEASE explain your stanch on it.
I do not have a current manual, but am aware of what is stated in the 2006 manual, Article VII, Section 7, #31, under Ministry.

As of 2007 the application for a license still had the question, do you have a televison?

How can one preach the truth yet live a lie?

stanch? Did you mean stench?

Easy, have your wife buy it and say it's hers.

A TV can receive outside signals. A monitor by its self can only pick up what is set to it. No signals from TV stations unless modified. Cable would allow you to pick up outside signals.
If you have a monitor and a dvd player, I'm cool. But if you are using a tV as a monitor then do you not have a tv also?
