“From Hell” — Really?
ABC has a new TV program — “From Hell.” From the promo it seems to present people’s frustrations, pain, and misery as a form of mass entertainment. My thoughts:
* Other people’s suffering doesn’t entertain me. It breaks my heart.
* So what kind of a society is entertained by people’s troubles?
* If a Christ-follower mentions Hell, they are called narrow minded, fundamentalist, judgmental, and/or mean spirited. So why not ABC?
* Christ-followers want to share the good news that God has provided a way to avoid Hell, not to make money off of people’s Hell-like circumstances.
