Al Jazeera launches US television news service

[JDavis]

 

 

 

I would argue that the channels you've mentioned are biased towards a worldview. In MSNBC's case it would be Leftist, Communist, Socialist.

 

As I've clearly stated, Al Jazeera is slanted toward the Political ideology of the Wahabbist which is Islamic domination of the world. Mere hatred and pure evil. The subjecation of women and death to anyone who opposes it's format. To include other Faiths, Homosexuals, and atheist's. If you desire to support that you go right ahead. As for me and my house, We will Serve the Lord.

 

Please explain scripturally how God desires for us to fill our heads and hearts with anything that opposes His Word because Al Jazeera stands in stark contrast to God's desire for Israel both as a Nation(a light to the world) and as a people.

 

 

Political ideology is just part of one's world view, so all the news agencies are biased towards a worldview.

 

 Al Jazeera is a news source just like the one's I have mentioned.  reading their site is no more and no less sinful than reading MSNBC or FoxNews or even the Christian favorite of WND.

 

The top story for them today is the possible use of chemical weapons in Syria.

 

They have a great story about the Xilai trial going on in China, something that is hard to find out much about from the US media

 

They also have a story about the NSA wiretapping that reads like it was written by FoxNews.

 

and finally there is an OpEd piece about cities subsidizing sports teams and whether they gain from it, tied into Detroit and the Red Wings.

 

I realize that for many people all they want is one side of every story, the side they agree with, which is why FoxNews is so popular.  But I like to get all side of the story.

 

Proverbs 18:17 tells us "The first to plead his case seems right, Until another comes and examines him."

 

sadly, fear of what they might find keeps too many people from looking at all sides.

The Word also tells us;

 

Jas 1:17

Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and cometh down from the Father of lights, with whom is no variableness, neither shadow of turning.

 

Watch what you want.

 

I agree that your worldview will dictate what you trend towards.

 

What's your worldview?

 

Mine is Judeo/Christianity. Since I know that this is the Truth I don't need to learn from others. If you want to examine it I don't see a problem with it. However, offering it as an alternative and equivocating is blindly insane.

Well that did not take long at all, the last refuge for the insecure....question the faith of those who dare to think differently.

My worldview is the same as yours...but I realize the Bible does not contain information about current events in the world. Thus if I wish to know what is happening in the world I will need to turn to other resources.

My faith is not so weak that I am forced to rely on the sheep food given out by many news outlets, I can read all sides of the story and use them to try and filter out what is really going on.

I realize not everyone is in the same place in the strength of their faith so I do understand why some would fear this sort of thing

JD, sadly, you are one of the few people on this planet who think critically, evaluate, and learn. Most people soak in whatever subtle propganda is fed to them. that is the concern.

And that gives people to question my worldview???

I am sick and tired of having my faith questioned because I think differently.

I didn't question your Faith. I'm asking what your worldview is. You're the one who appears to be defensive.

 

I would also like for you to explain to me how it is Biblical with scriptural support to feed yourself falsehoods.

 

Care to comment on the link George provided?

 

At the end of last year I was diagnosed with High Blood Pressure and High Cholesterol. The Doctor told me that I needed to eat more natural foods and fruit and nuts. I was to cut out red meat and eat more fish. I was also to lay off the salt. I was feeling terrible for the first time in my life. I had gotten off track wasn't eating right and wasn't exercising.

 

However, I listened to what the Doctor said. I cut out red meat, I cut out salt, and caffeine, and I have been eating more natural foods while exercising regularly, I feel Great again, but according to you the Doctor was all wrong. I should just eat what I feel like and cut out all the exercise because I will likely die anyway.

 

 

Is that true?

 

P.S. No one has questioned your Faith what has been asked is what your worldview is. Mine is Judeo/Christian and lines up with what God's revealed will is for Israel.

All sources of news offer falsehoods in one manner or another. Knowing this gives us 3 choices...

We can ignore them all and be ignorant to what is happening in the world

We can just choose those sources that feed us what we want to hear

Or we can go to various sources from all perspectives and try and glean the truth.

To me one and two are unacceptable, which only leaves 3.

Based on your post on this forum you have chosen 2.

To stick with your analogy you would have ignored all the doctors but the one that told you what you already believed to be true.

P.S. Yes you did, you just choose to do it in a cowardly passive aggressive manner

or even the Christian favorite of WND.

 

 

I do not see that as a Christian favorite. Many folks here may like it. I do not though. But in no way is that site a favorite among the Christians I know outside of worthy.

Is it good when they air video's of supposedly Israeli air raid injured Palestinians who only moments later jump off of a gurney and go running through the street's?

All news sources play such games and you have to take this into account when watching, listening or reading any source.

 

All new sources do not play such games, as you put it.   There have been numerous cases of false reporting by Arabic news organizations like Al Jazeera.   While most European news organizations are not fair to Israel, Arab news organizations take the cake when it comes to dishonesty in news reporting.
