Join the Media Violence Fast!

Some of us need to fast from media altogether (hmmm), but this is a good start. Sponsored by the UCC, PureMusic will be participating in a Media Violence Fast, Oct. 12-18. Here what they have to say and decide for yourself:

"Just consider this: Before reaching the age of 18, the average U.S. child will witness 200,000 acts of violence on television, including 40,000 murders. The National Television Violence Survey has found that 60 percent of TV shows contain violence.

This Media Violence Fast is not about censorship. Instead, this is an opportunity to pause and consider how the saturation of violence on our TV screens also affects our spiritual lives, our relationships with others, how we see the world and how we promote peace as a religious value, starting with our remote controls."
