So Tracy and I have gotten hooked on the TV show Private Practice. For those of you that don't know about the show, it is a spin off of Gray's Anatomoy, but in my opinion the show is nothing like Gray's. While Tracy and I were on vacation we got behind on several of the shows that we like to watch, one of those was Private Practice. For some reason our DVR didn't record one of the episodes and we were going to try and watch it on hulu.com but for some reason my computer is having issues and wouldn't stream the video well enough to make it watchable. Anyway, that has very little to do with my post. Last night we decided to try and get caught up a little bit with Private Practice, so we watched an episode that was several weeks old. And this is what my post is about.
In this episode of Private practice there is a debate about Abortion. It seemed like, to me, that this show was almost pushing abortion on the American Public. At one point one of the doctors said, "I had an abortion and I am not ashamed of it." They seemed to make it out to be just an easy thing to do. The debate had little to do with when life begins and more to do with whether or not it was the "right" decision for that person at that time. It was a very relativistic argument and one that I had some big problems - Not only were the promoting abortion, but they were also pushing this relativistic mindset, that what is good for you may not be good for me. They totally ignored any Moral Absolutes.
So here is my big issue - Hollywood, and the Far Left Liberals seem to continuously pushing the fact that Christians should not be pushing their beliefs or ideas on others. It seems to me that now they are doing the exact thing that they have criticized Christians for. They are PUSHING their ideas on abortion off on the general public, while at the same time criticizing us for doing that same thing. They continuously say that Christians are too closed minded, while at the same time they stick their fingers in their ears and ignore any other viewpoint. While they are out there preaching TOLERANCE, they are increasing INTOLERANT of Christians, the Church or anything that represents any Moral Absolutes.
Just my $.02
Let me know what you think!
