Television is programed to program you. Before you came to Christ do you ever wonder why it was common to use his name as the heathens do? I cant stand it when I am around non believers that use his name in vain. I cant help but ask them why they use it, it makes it easy to talk about him actually because they are the ones that bring it up. Do you ever ask them why they use it? I cant watch TV anymore because it is deeply rooted in all programing. What do you guys think? Any ideas how to deal with those that use it and bring them to God? How do you deal with someone that just blindly states its just a normal slang. Do other cultures use his name in vain like they do in English?

Yeah it's not cool. People are programmed as a whole to use it in vain so I don't think it's just tv only. What we need to do is have friends who don't use His name in vain. Bible itself says that bad company corrupts you. You will start copying what you see if it's the people you spend them most time with. Like the phrase, "show me your friends and I'll tell you who you are." But when we see people doing things not good then it's a teaching moment as you did with they use His name in vain and then you start a diacussion from there. But others cultures do it too.
