Father of the False
When I was on CNN, something caught my eye. Poaching was once again on the rise in Africa. More people were hunting rhinos and elephants. I told my Grandpa Bob at once, and he said reason people were hunting animals with precious ivory, is because of Aphrodisiacs. He told it was grinded rhino horn that you slip int someones drink and they fall in love with you. Insane huh. Who is the Father of Lies? The one and only The Devil Himself. He spurred that idea to control people. Lies such as that are against commandment 9 'thou shalt not bear false witness against thy neighbor.' The Great Apostasy (or I like to call it, the dark ages of the church) is example. When my Church was forgotten. It kept going until the restoration (the renaissance of the church.) every lie and ridiculous thing from phoney medicines, inaccurate documentaries to bad advertising was originated from Satan. No wonder they call him the Father of lies.
The Media Menace
This blog post is about how the media affects us. The media( radio, television, and the Internet.) can be used by both good and evil. For example my church has the Mormon Channel which has peaceful music and helpful messages. And don't forget about general Conference. But at the same time it can be used to poison minds and tell them to do sin For example, in 1939 a man used the book War of the Worlds to tell people that they were invaded by aliens when they don't exist, causing widespread panic and mayhem. Another is Joseph Goebbles of the Nazi propaganda, who told lies about the Jews. And films with alcohol, drugs, nudity, language and smoking puts lives on the line to hell. People performing dangerous stunts on YouTube tempt others to do the same thing. And the reason why I hate cartoons it's because unlike non-fiction, they disorientate and mock the real world. SO be cautious or bad things will happen.

Fashion Infractions
This post is about the issue of immodesty. Clothing has been an important thing in the world and in my church.Back then clothes were growing less bulky and more efficient, in other words swimming suits don't sink you, clothes don't cause overheating and they don't drag around and are not hard to carry. But the thing that ticks me off, it also grew in sinly proportions (e:g bikinis, tang tops, short skirts and shorts and shirts that don't cover the stomach or shoulders.) It also leads to pornography viewing and sexual sin. So here is my advice. Avoid all of that waste of resources time and money and stick to modest clothes.
