It seems like every time I see an ad for discovery channel or National Geo. they are showing shows that talk about different ways that the world will end. Everyday they find a new way to kill us off, doesn't seem a little doom and gloom to continue airing these shows? Is it just to make money because people like to watch that or some other agenda? Opinions please.
God never gives you anything that you can't handle. So buck up and handle your shit!

 Quoting: MissKitty


Agenda, subliminal message that we are powerless to stop what is coming. Perfect example is, that Life after People special. Sad thing is, people are foolish enough to buy into it. In fact someone in my tv studio and video production class, actually did part of this newscast we've all had to do, on that program. I didn't say anything, though I thought about it. I knew it would just cause drama however, so I held back.
No one is perfect. A babe before walking will first stumble and fall many times but NEVER gives up until he succeeds.

Always remember, ultimately, to never follow any person's belief. Your relationship with God is between you and God.

If nothing else, remember this: religion = subservience, control and conformity, the same template as EVERY government

"Most believers would kill truth if truth threatened their religion." L. K. Washburn

"This crime called blasphemy was invented by priests for the purpose of defending doctrines not able to take care of themselves." Robert Ingersoll

"If anyone wants to know how God feels, it's a warm light as if the sun is poking through dark clouds and lifting your spirits with pure joy."

I think that the powers that be thought the shit was going to hit the fan years ago and have been 'faking it' ever since.
I just saw NBC's remake of Knight Rider. WTF?

Re: Anyone notice the kinds of TV shows that they've been running?
it's true, and they have been producing movies with the same agenda from end-of-the-world sci-fi to multiple horror movies much more than in the past.

my opinion? keep the people scared of something. scared people are much easier to manipulate.

Tonight, "Asteroid" was on Sci Fi.

Last night, "Meterorites" was on HBO or Showtime (can't remember which one).

They've been running "Deep Impact" quite often on Showtime for about a month now.

Because its going to happen. They are tapping into the collective consciousness. People are tired of living this life. Even if they say otherwise. You know it ..i know it ..we all know it.

they know when the ratings go up and they want to cash in on the feeling.

TV is pure trash. It was lots of criminal tv (still is really).Now shifting gears to gloom and doom. Why not have a fearful,zombified(if that's even a word)easy to control public. Instead of a happy,free-thinking, hard to control public.

doom sells. Always has. Movies, tv shows.. some may still remember the old alien movies when that concept became popular, or the nuke end of world movies during cold war, asteroid movies recently, so on and so on.

I don't watch TV, but my Chow/border Collie loves to watch the Dog Whisperer. This is his favorite show. I have noticed that they have begun to show more traumatic "programming" even in the dog world.

I too, am concerned.

Just yet another version of the same old same old fear-mongering END-TIME HOAX, aka Armageddon.

People spend more money when they are frightened, apart from anything else.

They also become more docile, and make bad financial decisions, based on the fire sale mentality, if the end is coming up.

This all was also prevalent in the 19thC with religions.

I haven't watched tv since the cable was shut off, no decent signal now...but over at a friend's house the other day, she mentioned that she noticed that tv show's are not listing phone numbers, like in movie's or sit coms...she said she noticed that if they were saying one out loud, only half of the number was spoken, or if it was shown on the screen, only half of the number was displayed. What would the purpose of that be?
I also found (w/o tv) I get a lot more things accomplished, and my friend also said, "There is nothing on" even though she has some 300+ channels. wtf

They are conditioning the sheeple by showing extreme doom scenarios so that when it does happen soon there will be much less panic and mayhem in the streets. They don't call it programming for nothing.

With the new wild and whacky weather, people are being more docile and actually somewhat prepared physically and mentally and perhaps spiritually. TPTB know extreme natural events are ramping up and going to impact everyday life hard. Besides... it gives them an out... We can't say they didn't 'warn' us.

You want reality TV.. stick a WebCam up a pole in your yard and then sit down and watch a day's worth of it. Or put the WebCam in your livingroom and watch it for a day. That IS reality... all else is mind control in one form or another. Theather and Drama were invented as a form of mind control thousands of years ago.
