After only a few episodes it looks like NBC is shelving the controversial The Book of Daniel, where a prescription drug addicted minister with an alcoholic wife, gay son and lesbian sister who talks to Jesus in person somehow didn't connect with the average family viewer.
Reeeeeally? How could that be? I mean, how could of all of that Hollywood market research have been so wrong?
I tried to watch it... I really did, in order to be objective and give it the benefit of the doubt. But it was so damn ludicrous and openly offensive to standard Christian viewpoints, I really didn't want to give up any of my limited time on this planet absorbing its content.
I'm sure the show business intelligencia are licking their wounds and making themselves feel better by assuring each other that the show was just too edgy for us poor simpletons who don't appreciate art or thought-provoking shows. After all, they're so much better than us and after we've discarded these arhaic notions of God and Jesus, we'll elevate ourselves to their illuminated state of being.
Ahhh, right.
As one person mentioned on the web, the only thing Daniel was missing was a serial killing dog to complete the most dysfunctional family in television history.
It was a perfect example of how Hollywood intends to tear down people of faith in an effort to reprogram us. I'm certain this won't be their last attempt. After all, they've successfully programmed society to believe that divorce, abortion, children out of wedlock, gay marriage and casual sex are all acceptable.
The only thing left to tear down is the big JC.
In their pursuit for such a goal, I can't imagine what they'll come up with next.
