Help! There's Demons on My TV!!




The demonic imagery that is in movies and on TV is way past my tolerance level!

For those who are 18-40, and if you've been paying attention to pop-culture, you will notice that we've been innundated with at least 3 scary movies to every one action or comedy flic. Even though these scary movies don't do so well (B movies), they still capture our attention for about 15-30 seconds when they're advertising. Ever notice that since the movie The Ring, more movies have been made with that pale/greyish hue for the main villains? That's no accident. My main point is that Hollywood is fascinated with putting scary images in our psychi. But what they call scary, really is demonic. Period.

In my experience and studies on the matter, (thankfully no personal encounters), I'm very familiar with the behaviors, personalities, and manifestations of demons. And the movies that we've become so numb to, are vividly yet obliviously displaying evil caricatures.

Movie previews like "The Unborn" and "The Underworld" , when you look at them carefully, don't need much breakdown. I mean, come on! Werewolves? Really? Or a guy on the steps with his head twisting around? A dog with an upside-down head? Yeah, the movies don't indicate that they're talking about demons per se', but....come on! That's the whole "trick". The media is introducing the devil and his cohorts, but in a non-offensive way. Desensitization. If we can get used to these images, then the real thing won't be bad when they manifest. But by then, it'll be too late to avoid the reason of their manifestation.

I mean, I can't even take my 5-year old to Blockbuster Video anymore! Just an innocent stroll down the New Releases aisle, and you'll get an eyeful of all kinds of...well, evil. And I don't need to keep instructing him to keep his eyes forward, or try to give a soft explanation as to why the guy on the movie box has all white eyes with blood dripping from his mouth.

I'm not sure what your beliefs are, but please understand that there is definitley an unseen world that surrounds us. We'd be wise to discern its presence. Therefore, govern yourself accordingly!
