Last week the media praised ABC’s family show “The Fosters” for televising two young boys kissing. This isn’t the first time The Fosters has pushed the limit. This is a prime time tv show whose target audience is aimed at America’s youth. As I skimmed through the show to find the sponsors, here are a few things I saw : underage (preteen) drinking, preteen sex, lesbianism – in your face lesbianism – women kissing each other, women in bed together the latest – two young boys kissing romantically. They didn’t just show it once, they kept replaying the scene over and over and onto the next week as well.
It’s time to lift up your voices. Stop the media from influencing our children.
There is nothing ‘family’ related on the ABC family Channel.
Tell ABC family to stop the filth! http://abcfamily.go.com/feedback
PARENTS TURN OFF THE TV, every channel is full of filth, debauchery, living to satisfy every lustful indulgence and if that’s not it, then its about witchcraft.
If they have the nerve to push their ungodly beliefs on our nation, then you have the right to voice your opinion. We need to go back to a Nation under God, not a Nation under the moral filth of big names like Rosie O’Donnell. Who made them the new moral compass? Did God retire and install Rosie and children’s television stations as our new sexual ambassador. I think not. The media calls this a “Tv milestone” and “Television making history” . Also see the many issues http://www.onemillionmoms.com has had with them.
This is just ONE show, there are many more filthy teen shows, do something.
If you disagree, then you have that freedom. If you are okay with your young children sexually involved with other children – same-sex or not – keep it in your own house, my kids don’t need to watch it.
The bible is very clear on God’s stance on this issue. We, as Christians, are told to stop following our lustfilled fleshly desires and instead be Holy and follow the Holy Spirit.
Tell ABC family to stop the filth, we don’t want it. PRAY that every filthy influence through media manipulation over our youth is crushed in Jesus name. If people want to live according to their lust and their every desire, that’s their choice but don’t drag the rest of America down with them. Teen Nick is another channel to be careful of.

“I strongly encourage your company to drop all plans of financially supporting the inappropriate ABC Family Channel program “The Fosters.” This show is degrading to families and damaging to our culture.
I am appalled that your company is supporting a show that features homosexuality in a positive light on a family channel. While foster care and adoption is a wonderful thing, this program is attempting to redefine marriage and family by having two moms raise these children together. The content of this program also includes violence involving children, children selling drugs and parents purchasing condoms for their children so they can practice casual sex before marriage. Obviously, none of this material is acceptable to air on a family show.
While your company is a household name, I do not agree with your financial backing of this program. As a Christian, I feel you are attacking my faith, morals and values. Not only is this program insulting to conservative viewers and traditional families, but it also focuses on a controversial subject that your company would probably not desire to be associated with.
As a consumer, I am asking you to please pull your ad immediately and to support traditional family values and family-friendly programming instead. My decision to support your company depends on it.I urge your company to place “The Fosters” on your “do not advertise” list in protest of attempting to desensitize America and our children by promoting inappropriate behavior, especially on a family channel.My family and I look forward to your response. – See more at: http://www.rightwingwatch.org/content/one-million-moms-protests-fosters-trying-desensitize-america-and-our-children-promoting-inap#sthash.2TrvSrOP.dpuf
oh, and don’t use the old argument homophobic with me. This is for anyone who continues to practice sin, including adulterous affairs. Your choice is your choice, but God has called us to be Holy.
I pray for the Salvation of our youth, that their eyes would be opened. Lord God, please help those who are confused and lost. Lead them in the right direction. May your wrath fall upon anything and anyone who tries to drag our children to life of sin. May your name be honored again, may your laws lead us in this life. In Jesus name, Amen.
Leviticus 18:22 “Do not practice homosexuality, having sex with another man as with a woman. It is a detestable sin
1 Corinthians 6″ 9- 10 Don’t you realize that those who do wrong will not inherit the Kingdom of God? Don’t fool yourselves. Those who indulge in sexual sin, or who worship idols, or commit adultery, or are male prostitutes, or practice homosexuality,10 or are thieves, or greedy people, or drunkards, or are abusive, or cheat people—none of these will inherit the Kingdom of God.
1 Timothy The law is for people who are sexually immoral, or who practice homosexuality, or are slave traders, liars, promise breakers, or who do anything else that contradicts the wholesome teaching 11 that comes from the glorious Good News entrusted to me by our blessed God.
Keep thy heart with all diligence; for out of it are the issues of life. Put away from thee a froward mouth, and perverse lips put far from thee. Let thine eyes look right on, and let thine eyelids look straight before thee. Ponder the path of thy feet, and let all thy ways be established. Turn not to the right hand nor to the left: remove thy foot from evil.Prov 4:23
Protect your heart………………………..
Ancient Paths 
Amen! I agree all the way on this issue! Family TV is geared to introduce sin into young lives and the acceptance of immoral behavior as the “normal way of life.” It is just another tool in Satan’s box to capture young minds and hearts. Writing to these companies may or may not change a thing but when I do I will at least be able to say I oppose this type of brainwashing and indoctrination into a nation that is . . . truly over God! ~ Blessings in our Lord, and Savior ~
Thank you for your comment! It is so refreshing to know that there is still a remnant of believers out there. I posted this and thought – am I the only person who thinks this? The work onemillionmoms has done has been amazing in sponsors backing out of sponsoring certain shows, but above all, the mighty hand of God is powerful I know my prayers are being sent out and the armies of heaven are fighting for us and the righteousness of God. God bless you!
This is why there is no cable TV in my home.
Excellent! No tv would be better, my cousins don’t have tv and they love it. I read a verse just now (Isaiah 42) that reminds me that even if wickedness is increasing, I will still praise the Lord…
My heart is breaking
as I remember how it used to be:
I walked among the crowds of worshipers,
leading a great procession to the house of God,
singing for joy and giving thanks
amid the sound of a great celebration!
Why am I discouraged?
Why is my heart so sad?
I will put my hope in God!
I will praise him again—
my Savior and my God!
Have you had a chance to read my last posting regarding oil in your lamp?
Yes, I sent is out to a few friends as well.
truly amazing and at the same time
– felt the sword of the spirit in the words
The days ahead of us are going to get darker than we could have ever imagined hence Jesus warning, I believe, that because of the increase of wickedness the love of mist would grow cold. Fire makes heat and we need to continually be in God’s presence in b order to have our lamps full.
I feel the same way, I believe it and I tremble thinking of it. I need to find a way to eliminate so much busyness in life, self discipline also – there is a such a fight for our souls and our relationship with Christ.
When I read that the lamps of Jesus’ day needed filling every 15 minutes, that really spoke to me of how much we need to be seeking the Holy Spirit to fill ours continually. What scares me is are we burning at all . Do we even know if our oil is low?
That scares me too
The only thing we can do is stay continually in His word day and night, walking with Him all day like Enoch did.
You are so right.
Praying. I wish that churches would become more involved with the message from the pulpit about this. Shepherds seem to be lax in this area. I have not watched television for almost 3 years now because I saw it becoming filthier.
I agree, we have to be so careful with what we see and deposit in our heart. I wonder if there is greater fear of man than fear of God in the churches. I’m reminded of the days of Lot and Noah, not one person believed in Noah – in the whole land, it almost feels like that now. Everyone has made their own “god” according to their own ways. Thank you for praying, and I enjoy your comments even though I don’t always get a chance to respond. God bless!
When I compare TV with what I saw as a kid, I am amazed at the change. Actually, we can see it today. We can compare the old shows with the new ones.
Pastors have a responsibility to help us both to understand the Bible and to apply it in our lives. Does that mean our pastors should tell us how to vote? No, but there is nothing wrong with churchmen making it clear what the Bible has to say about sin. When the government starts supporting sin, that means sin has become a political issue, and the church cannot stand on the sidelines.
Funny you should mention “…pastors should tell us how to vote?” because I’ve noticed over the years churches in this area will push voting for certain people as a message from the pulpit, yet they are fearful (my opinion) of running people off when it comes to reminding them what sin really is. I am in prayer for our church leaders to stop standing on the sidelines, and they wonder why there is a lack of youth and men in the pews.
