As a christian,I am,of course,upset about all of this.But,I suppose people will always be afraid of somethig that they can not fully understand,and try to change things.

P.S.Did you ever stop to think that they might be cancelling
"Touched by an Angel" just because it sucks?

 

If they are cancelling Touched by an Angel because it has God's name in it than that is just wrong, and undemocratic on so many levels. I doubt that they would do that... it's gotta be against the constitution *cough* Article I: Freedom of speech, religion, press, petition and assembly. *cough*

 

That was some cough,'Guy!You okay?You need some soup?Sorry,getting off topic.

 

it was a crap show, but there was no reason to have it cancelled.. it's not as if it was forcing people to believe inn christianity..

it's just another mythological show, like hercules or xena.. just a load wussier

 

I think thats a silly reason to ban it. Heaven forbid that a message of hope might mention God somewhere.

The only other thing I'd like is if fundamentalists would stop trying to ban everything THEY dont like.

 

I'm an atheist, but there's absolutely no reason for the show to be cancelled because of those arguments.... bleh.

/me tries not to start a giant religion argument.

 

Oh please. Just about EVERYONE gets offended nowadays!

I don't like religion being everywhere either, but I just LIVE with it. I mean, live and let live! If they dont' like the show, don't watch it! Jeez.

 

i am a christian may not show it but i have a horrid temper of else things.. i dont agrre with that show its bs .well in all honesty i think it was a ridualous fairy tale show but thats just me ... but it is pretty dumb you cancled it b/c of the god thing or whatever.. next they will rid of pron b/c she screams ooo god
not off topic is it
nuff said


I need all of your help too
i seem to have misplaced my marbles

 

im not into religeous stuff,
but y bann it for? its not like its offending anyone.
some people dont like it, some people do. wat happens to the poeple who do like it?
my god (pun indeed).

 

Banning a show because it had religious stuff in it is the most retarded thing I've heard in a while. If people don't like it, they shouldn't watch it(with that show, they wouldn't be missing anything anyway). So yeah, stupid. Extremely so.

 

0.0, NO leave the show allone!! Oh my GOD, My aunt is going to be pissed. She loves that show. I think that is just stupid I agree with That Guy!

 

i really dont care!!
just have them on the religous channels~ thats where they belong
i personally have other things to worry about

 

I believe that we should use God in more programs. As a refrence to God, not in vein. Now-a-days, there are soo many places that dont let you even speak of God, and that in itself is a sin.
