[Can't myspace, movies, grocery stores that sell alcohol, etc all be important too? (Responding to the 'evils of the internet')]
Grocery stores are necessary. If there were a grocery store that did not sell alcohol, we'd use it.
There is absolutely no need for someone to go to myspace and there is no need for someone to go into a movie theater.

I wonder what Bro. Randy's idea of a grocery store would be, given that he wants to force all of his followers to follow a lifestyle so limited that even hard-core ascetics would tell him to pull the pole out of his ass. Does he think it's sinful to have a kickass deli/hot foods counter like Whole Foods or a tremendous selection of cheap specialty items like Trader Joe's?
First off, BR, there are grocery stores that don't sell alcohol. Secondly, the Big J drank alcohol Himself, despite your nutty claims of "grape juice." Thirdly, it is not alcohol the Bible condemns, but drunkeness. Can you not tell the difference between those two things? Fourthly...ah, hell with it. It's not like he would ever listen.
And no need to go to your site because they have others, more open-minded, by the way, and they have the Bible to read it for themselves?
That's right Randy, if Jesus had wanted alcohol drunk, he would have created it himself, he would have taken jars of water and made them into wi...OOOPPPPSSSS!
There is absolutely no need for anyone to read the bible and there is no need for anyone to go into a church.
Fixed.
Flipper, it's curious how the KJV1611 is always absolutely, literally and word perfectly true, except for most of the times it mentions wine, isn't it?
Rupert Murdoch owns myspace. That's reason enough to leave it alone.
As for movie theaters, how else are you supposed to consider whether to buy a move or not without having viewed it first?
@Alena: Captain America lives on though. As per usual, 'dead' heroes return from the grave.
[...] and there is no need for someone to go into a movie theater.
Yeah, because they turn the lights down there and that might give the teen-agers an opportunity to (gasp!) grope each other!
Satan invented the movie theater as a means of tempting you into a life of popcorn-scented SIN!

That depends on what state you live in. Here in California, grocery stores most definitely DO sell alcohol.
At least we know he's not stalking kids on myspace, or that we'll be stuck sitting next to his fat nacho-munching ass in the movies.
Unless he's telling his little sycophants not to go to those place so they don't see what he gets up to there. Which is probably more likely the case. Do as I say, not as I do, right?
The Internet is rather necessary, in today's world.
No grocery stores in Sweden sell alcohol (just the very lowest kinds, below 2.5 percent, and you have to be eighteen to buy it).
Alcohol is sold in special stores, that only have alcohol and nothing else. Oh, sorry, they also have non-alcoholic beers and wines. Just beverages, then. In these stores you have to be 20 years old to buy alcohol, and they check everyone looking younger than 30. (I've been checked several times this past year, and I'm 40. It's a bit flattering, really, at my age.)
Nope, there's no need to go into a movie theater. Movies are available online. It's more comfortable to watch movies at home, anyway.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
