I live in an interesting neighborhood,....if you like the suburbs (I don't). I live in a suburb of Dallas so it is filled with rednecks and Trump assholes. My neighborhood would be considered just above middle class. The average income is around 90K-100K. The homes are all around 420K. That being said, people move here for the public schools but many have moved into my neighborhood for a church. This church has been expanding for a couple of years now. It started out as just an ordinary baptist church, but soon took over a grocery store that left the strip mall. It changed its affiliation and now is just a "christian" church. Its congregation has grown enormously. Particularly since the pastor claims to have survived cancer by prayer alone.
Anyway, A new neighbor moved in about 4 months ago. I got to know them. They have 3 kids that range from 11 to 19. Generally, in the evening everyone usually meets up when we walk our dogs. It turns into a conversation circle. We were all talking in one of these circles one day. The conversation turned to TV. The new neighbors say that they won't and never let their children watch PBS. I asked why and they replied, they showed children's shows like 'Dragon Tales' and other programs that are forbidden by the church. I asked if they let they kids read. They said yes but not 'Harry Potter'. I asked what they let them read and they said, the bible, of course, Narnia, and Anna Karenina. I was stunned. I didn't say anything just listened and eased away.
Later I noticed one of their sons. He had a bunch of video games. I said "Hey what games do you have"? He showed me. Oblivion, Halo, and Warcraft. I thought how utterly hypocritical. These parents let their kids play Warcraft, but never let them read Harry Potter.
It is a weird closet that these evangelicals live in. It's hypocritical AND unrealistic.
PBS, probably the best television you could expose ANY kid to is forbidden by some crazy preacher that claims that prayer cured his cancer. He obviously made that claim to become rich, because he certainly is rich now.
