Had a really long day yesterday. Went to work, came home , got washed changed went to prayer, went back to work, got in late. Very worthwhile ,
but,- I thought I would just wind-down and watch TV for an hour.
I really wished I hadn't bothered. First there was Big Brother which now
seems an incomprehensible form of voyeurism . I don't think we were mean to look at each other with this kind of scrutiny. Also the principle behind they way in which these people are observed is just wrong.
Then I watched a programme called Eight out of ten cats. This was just plain "unfunny ". The panel of speakers were trying to outdo each other with making offensive comments . They swore badly . I couldn't help thinking these programmes are more indicators of a society which is disintegrating.
These programmes are not really interesting , not amusing and frankly pointless. - But then I had just listened to a sermon about some very real and valuable issues.
