is it good to have a television at home, my daughter keeps telling me for a television.
Hi @My Dreams; I guess it's all about how you use the TV, and not whether you actually have one in the house or not.

Maybe your daughter wants a TV because all her friends' families have one....maybe this is not necessarily the best reason.

Also, you have told us of the importance of the Word of God in your household. For some ppl, more importance to the TV can mean less importance to the Word of God.

In the end it's about what you see.

For example, with tattoos, it's maybe not so much whether a person has a tattoo, than what does the tattoo say? for example, my wife and I talked to a young lady with the whole of John 3.16 tattooed on her wrist area; it was her favorite Bible verse, and mine also. This is vastly different from tattoos which promote false ideas or immoral practices.

The television in the USA is a media that promotes the liberal agenda. It is run by liberals which are anti Christian. So that they try to steer Christians into the liberal ways which is evil. I don't know about India though. But I just select movies and watch them on the internet so that I'm not being programmed by the evil liberals.

In the USA it's more of a New World Order liberal agenda that the UN promotes. Un-Natural Sexual Orientation Rights, Global Warming Harassment, COVID Virus Harassment and Dictactorship, Dual Racial Standards promoting certain races over others, etc.

And if anyone speaks out against them they get harassed and attacked publicly. Shamed publicly. And silenced.

It's almost as if we are under a new type Nazi dictatorship that is ruled by the media and elites.

Oh, and @My Dreams the new thing here in the USA is that in the schools they program the children with those liberal agendas and try to make laws that take away the rights of the parents to raise the children. So what they have done is taken away the rights of the people and given it to the liberal machine.

If you can set the TV to only certain stations I don't see an issue but, there's lots of garbage on it. I've not watched television in many years. There are some Godly things you could tune into, here is a site with several biblical tv shows:

@shortangel I think @Nancy's use of the word 'garbage', above, is pretty accurate...
