And speaking of reality shows, there's that one (can't remember the name) where people are asked questions about their lives and they take a lie detector test. I watched it once and it seemed that it destroyed a marriage and family. I think that show is just evil.Karlenehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02771306878095218330noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-738015707983587606.post-71468415035358198902008-06-02T08:55:00.000-06:002008-06-02T08:55:00.000-06:00Hi Janette - happy to hear that common sense is be...Hi Janette - happy to hear that common sense is being exercised somewhere.

What truly bothers me is when LDS members tear down others who aren't living LDS standards. We all need to show more repsect and more kindness for each other.Rebecca Talleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01969923131001170254noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-738015707983587606.post-64539172540725066932008-06-02T00:39:00.000-06:002008-06-02T00:39:00.000-06:00Yeah, you don't have to look very far to see the w...Yeah, you don't have to look very far to see the worst of our soceity. Still, I'm glad to report that all of my kids' schools are very strict about the kids' behavior. And have your husband watch Extreme Makeover, the Home Edition. I watched it today and it made me cry. It's sort of the opposite of all those horrible reality shows because it's one about doing good things for deserving people.Janette Rallisonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00883483145480893640noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-738015707983587606.post-49316936910674997742008-06-01T23:20:00.000-06:002008-06-01T23:20:00.000-06:00Tiffany - you are an amazing young lady.

We are all imperfect, so we have no right to tear other people down. We all need to set our standards high and encourage others to do the same. And pray of course, without that we are helpless.<BR/><BR/>[And thank you so much for your compliments on my Holocaust essay post!

It's pretty scary, if we take a look at what has become the norm in America, and most possibly, the world. Although I do not watch television from other nations, so I cannot say for a certainty. But we are raising a generation addicted to television who believe this is the norm. I truly fear for our future, on so many levels.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16986635883342034311noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-738015707983587606.post-31975759147039010232008-06-01T13:20:00.000-06:002008-06-01T13:20:00.000-06:00Hi Candace,Your post made me think of this scriptu...Hi Candace,<BR/><BR/>Your post made me think of this scripture:<BR/><BR/>3 And there was a strict command throughout all the churches that there should be no persecutions among them, that there should be an equality among all men;<BR/>4 That they should let no pride nor haughtiness disturb their peace; that every man should <B><I>esteem his neighbor as himself...</I></B><BR/><BR/>(Book of Mormon | Mosiah 27:3 - 4)Dan Olsenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03478846532686229790noreply@blogger.com
