bad mommy and daddy report tonight..we were channel surfing and dh decides to announce that we're going to watch the abc movie sixth sense. i'm saying no way and the oldest two, ages 6 and almost 8, are all for it because it's *scaaaaaary*. at every commercial i'm saying it's just make believe it's just make believe and even encouraged a channel change. we watched the entire movie and when it was time to go to bed, my oldest asked a genuine question: what do you do if (big emphasis on *if*) things pop out of the television mom? i reminded her that it was only a movie and that would never happen. she was certain i was wrong and kept asking "but what *if*...." i said it wouldn't happen and included other shows that wouldn't pop out either like her favorites spongebob and lizzie mcguire.
i feel so bad that these kids watched this movie. are there limits on programming at your home and would you have handled the scenario the same way with children at this age? tia for any btdt or advice.
m3t who can't wait til the school year starts so we can get back into a routine of 8P bedtime.

The discussion however, has not been limited to those who committed those crimes, but has also included those who purposely hid those crimes not only from the authorities but those that they served and who they looked for guidance.

It just goes to show you can't believe everything you read on the internet. I prefer my experience with the Church and even found a more reliable source - a Catholic organization - for ya:

With the Bishop's permission beforehand, it is possible for an Orthodox Lutheran - not a liberal Lutheran - to receive communion in the Catholic Church. It is an extreme, as you can see. The reason for this is that when Catholics celebrate communion, we acknowledge that Jesus is present and also * that we believe we are in communion with the Catholic Church.*
.....and you may feel free to take communion in my church as we have an open table.

You are disagreeing that being a Christian is important?
PumpkinAngel
Can you point me to passages in the bible that support your theory of Christianity shouldn't be a one size fit all type of thing?
PumpkinAngel
I like to think that describes our church as well.

Thank you, I have always wondered, guess I should have just looked it up myself but
