God Friended Me - spoilers

[DaveBj]

I started following this series from the beginning, because I thought it had an interesting premise, and that, like “Touched by an Angel” back in the day, maybe it could be an uplifting series. However, the moving-in episode definitely bothered me. I’m behind two eps on the DVR, but I’m only THAT far from becoming a complete un-follower.

if you’re miserable because of your religion, you’re doing it wrong.

Not necessarily.
What if somebody was going through a really difficult temptation, and striving to do the right thing. They may feel miserable while fighting the temptation.

They purposely drew in the religious crowd to their show, with a catchy title, on a Sunday, to gain the stage to preach to Christians on how they should respond to homosexuality.

I feel like I’m seeing this more and more—the show starts out with a decent, non-controversial premise, the first few episodes are really kinda nice, then they “gotcha” with something that goes against your values.

That’s why I’ve learned to withhold my judgment about any new show.
And the old ones don’t get a pass, either.
