Oh GLEE, let me count the ways. . .

If you think I'm finishing that sentence with "i love thee" you're sadly mistaken.

I could count all the ways I think GLEE is actually harming our society, but for now I'll just comment on the latest story involving my least favorite show on television: http://www.eonline.com/uberblog/b222547__i_Glee__i__Creator_Ryan_Murphy___quot_F__k_You__Kings_of_Leon_quot_.html

EW.com referred to GLEE as a show that is "about not censoring who you are." Don't censor yourself if you're a nerd, a homosexual, a promiscuous teenager, the president of your school's celibacy club and pregnant by someone other than your boyfriend, not "classically beautiful," an adulterer, a liar, a dumb jock, or just "different."

On GLEE, it's okay to just be who you are. So, why doesn't GLEE creator Ryan Murphy practice what he preaches? Saying "F-you, Kings of Leon" (when the band didn't throw a party because the all great and powerful GLEE asked to use their music) showed Murphy's true colors. Only be who you are if who you are loves my show and my agenda.

Murphy goes on to reference the 7-year-old children that could have heard a GLEE club version of one of Kings of Leon's songs and how that might have turned them on to music education. The first thing wrong with this is that I sincerely PRAY that no one lets their 7-yr-old child watch a show with such adult themes. If we want our kids to be involved in music education, then we take responsibility as parents and encourage them to become involved... we don't stick them in front of a completely age-INAPPROPRIATE show and expose them to ideas, and themes, and problems that 7-year-old's shouldn't even know EXIST yet and hope that they come away from it with a love of music!....?! Am I the only one that sounds crazy to?

For Murphy being so concerned with providing children with a positive influence he was sure quick to lose his temper and use potty language. :)

Whether you're letting a 7-year-old watch this show or not- it's obvious that the show wants to dig it's claws into this generation (as young as possible) and make them the most "tolerant" generation ever. Not a loving generation that wants the best life possible for their fellow man (that wants ETERNITY for them), but a generation that says "i do what's right for me and you do what's right for you." That's not what my Bible says- it says there is ONE WAY to God- ONE WAY that's right- no one comes to the Father except through Jesus Christ. And these sins we find so entertaining are separating us and a lost world from Jesus Christ (our ONE WAY to God).

I am not entertained by watching a group of struggling youth search for truth and love and acceptance and seeing them "find" it not in Christ. It gives false hope to an already confused world. In fact, this show does less than entertain me- it breaks my heart.
