my ltte regarding book of daniel and fundie response
me: I think that KBTV's decision to cave to a small fanatic group and pre-empt the premiere of Book of Daniel is an extremely cowardly thing to do.
If someone doesn' t want to see it they should just turn off their tv or change the channel but for them take away MY decision of whether or not to watch makes me extremely angry and sick to my stomach.
Since KBTV has decided they are the guardians of their viewers and are going to start censoring what we see, let me add something to your list. I want to protest, in advance, the next time KBTV decides to air any Billy Graham specials or anything with an overtly religious theme. These offend me and if I don't want to watch, no one else should be allowed to watch either. Changing the channel or turning off the tv is an undue imposition on me and the shows just shouldn’t be aired so I won’t have to be put out.

them: "This is in response to kmlewis' letter Tuesday on the pre-empting of "the book of daniel", the "religious" comedy about a "reverend" who is living the dysfunctional family life. Lewis indicates that the television station KBTV "caved in to a small fanatic group."
I suggest she check around - could it be possible that SHE may now be in the minority? Is it possible that the group that has been fighting for the movement toward "morally correct" media could be gaining in popularity?
I will pray for Lewis, that's what WE do."

me again. i am so pissed off. due to constraints on lttes i cannot rebut this letter. i am going to try to get my brother to write one back. i don't want these damn people praying for me. i want them to KISS MY ASS.
