    I remember ET was a no no.

    My father was a big movie buff, he saw everything. I remember letting him baby sit my son, and he let him watch anything he was watching. I use to have a fit about it.

    He was no longer an Elder at the time, but I was still way too influenced by the WBTS.

    Now I realize my dad did me a favor.

    Here's a good one: An elder in our congregation refused to let his children watch Barney because Barney practiced magic! Barney may be the most annoying kids show, but I don't think he'll lure kids into demonism!

    Barney practices magic? I never even thought about that, it's a kids show and kids shows have stuff like that. I actually used to make fun of Barney until my son was born and watch it, now I think it teaches a lot of positive things to children.

    Yeah...wasn't a movie, but Mr. Toad's Wild Ride at Disneyland was villified for reasons I don't understand. I remember some people who found demonic messages in anything! It was all so ridiculous!

    Well, this isn't a movie, but I just read on the WT official web site that Yoga is absolutely steeped in spiritism and should never be practiced by "true christians". Now they tell us how to exercise!

    Yes, yoga has been a no no for at least 30 years.

    I must have missed that memo, if that was well-known for 30 years. I suppose if I had actually signed up for a yoga class, the JW exercise police would have come to arrest me; then I would have known. Oh well, I'm out now, so if I want to do Yoga, I will.
