TV LAND flippantly disrespects God and Christians
Send an email to TV Land president Larry Jones, letting him know you are offended that TV Land so easily disrespects Christians by belittling their faith.
The TV Land network has a new feature starting this Saturday (Feb. 16) called "OHMIGOD, That's so 80's weekend." The series features movies from the 1980's. "OHMIGOD" is an irreverent exclamation for "Oh, my God!"
The promotional ad is playing on the television broadcast and on their website at www.tvland.com . (WARNING: If you visit their website, the ad plays automatically.)
I can't tell you in words how offensive it is to listen to the advertisement for this new show as they must say "OHMIGOD" five times in 30 seconds.
Disrespect for Christians and God have gone on for some time with this phrase, but now we have a network that feels it appropriate to name an entire program series with this phrase.

OHMIGOD, you're such a retard!
Pull that stick out of your ass before it knocks out what few neurons you have left.
Oh noes! You disrespected God by typing it! The only solution is to make a pile on your front lawn out of all of your electronics that could display this sinful message. Then light them on fire. You'll never be bothered by this message again (except for when you talk to people. I suggest staying inside all the time), especially if you breathe deeply while the pile is burning.
When you're like this, breathing mercury vapor and burning plastic might actually yield an improvement.
Oh, my God! Like, no way. You totally can't be serious. That's so bogus, dude.
I didn't realize that the 80s were so 'anti-God.' Tubular.
I reckon all them Valley Girls gonna run and hide from this dude.
You heard of Moon Zappa, Don? Like, eighties, like, ya know?
You were offended?
Change
the
Channel!
I get a kick out of these people who sacrifice their souls watching dirty evil stuff just to protect their fellow Christians.
Here's a tip, grab a book (real book, not the bible), go for a walk, get a life so you're not so obsessed with everyone else's.
Yup, there goes Donny Wildmon tilting at windmills again.
He was the one who claimed Mighty Mouse snorted cocaine (using out-of-context freeze frames) - then when he was proven wrong, continued the lie anyway.
You are a fucktard. "God" isn't his name at all, it's merely a title given to YHWH/Yahweh/Jehovah because it's easier to say than figure out how the hell you pronounce YHWH. Is your father's name "Dad?" I didn't think so. You could say "The President sucks" and it wouldn't be completely clear who you're talking about. You'd have to specifically say "President Bush sucks" to communicate your dislike for Bush, "The President sucks" could just as easily mean Reagan or Clinton. Also, every monotheistic religion refers to their deity simply as God, and I know you're not saying Allah and YHWH are the same god, are you? Get my point yet? So until people start saying "Yahweh damn it" or "Oh my Jehovah" you can shut the fuck up and DIAF.
Talk about a tempest in a teapot!
There are some REAL disrespectful activities going on in the world, Donnie-boy, and maybe it would be more productive if you put your attention, outrage, and efforts towards eradicating them. One that immediately comes to mind is the propensity for a certain part of the population to disrespect the belief systems of their neighbours by trying to cram their religion down those disrespected throats.
Think you could summon up a little outrage and indignation about that? Maybe even change it?
And does anyone sincerely believe these people wouldn't be rioting in the streets like Middle Eastern Muslims were over the Danish Muhammad cartoons if they could get away with it?
The only difference is that the government isn't feeding these people with a propaganda machine. And if they got their way, it would be.
By god's sweet thrice-buggered arsehole, is this really the pinnacle of blasphemy on televison nowadays? Buddha-rimming Christ on a tricycle, if you think that's offensive, you should take a look at Christonthecrapper.com. I'll bet you a churchful of the Virgin Mary's spotless tampons that you exit that site faster than a priest from an alter boy when the bishop walks in.
Just trying to keep it all in perspective for you Don...
Okay.
"Oh, YOUR God!"
Better?
Fundies, since you're so thirsty for persecution and disrespect, I suggest you move to Tibet, Chechnya, Palestine or some other region where the people actually are oppressed. Ask for a Tibetan citizenship and then fight for your right to practice Tibetan Buddhism freely. Head over to Palestine and try some Gandhi-style peaceful resistance. Get on a plane to Chechnya and fight for a free Chechnya state.
Once you've been beaten by the Chinese, shot at by the Israelis, and poisoned by Putin, you can go back to the US and cry about persecution and disrespect of Christians.
"Oh, YOUR God!"
'Oh your Yahweh' would really drive the point home ;).
The only thing I have inferred from this is:
You know, I had an inkling that when I looked at the comments I would see several containing the word/phrase
OHMIGOD!
HOW TO KILL YOURSELF:
1. Find a gun
Congratulations, you are now dead! The world is now a much better place. Notice that while you are dead, there is no heaven around you like the church told you all these years. It's too bad you wasted your life that way!
Oh my God! Like, is this Major-League dork still around? I remember when he and his bunch were going after rock music lyrics in the 80s, now he says classics like "Flashdance" and "The Breakfast Club" cause too much of a ruckus? Can you describe the ruckus?
I noticed that upon visiting said TV Land website, it was promoted as "Omigosh." So the question is: did TV Land change it after being inundated with hate mail, or was it always "Omigosh" and buddy Don here completely misrepresented the entire thing?
Shit, guys, I didn't realize that America was so disrespectful to Christians. Us 10% better stop the cruel oppression of the other 80% before this country is torn apart. Don Wildmon is so wise on such matters. (this friends is what we call FOS, or Fucking Obvious Sarcasm)
I have four Solutions for you.
Solution 1: Change the channel.
Just because someone says "Oh, my God" or "OHMIGOD" does not not mean they are referring to YOUR god "Yahweh", they could be referring to Zeus, Odin, Brahma, or one of the THOUSANDS of other gods.
To all you americans, is the word "family" starting to become a scary word? It used to refer to such an innocent and nice thing about children and good parenthood. Now it's usually a word used in the title of a loony christian organisation :-( I'd hate for us to have to come up with a new word for family.
I'm sorry.. did you think you had some kind of right to NOT be offended? Let me tell you what offends me.. Ya know those big megachurches that waste space and resources that could be put to better use? Or how about those disgusting displays where there are crosses dispersed around the countryside? Jacking up Ma Nature? Yeah.. those are offensive, disgustingly so.. but I'm not writing a letter to the president of every church in town. Why? Because I realize that I don't have a right to NOT be offended. Perhaps something that YOU should learn.
"OHMIGOD" is an irreverent exclamation for "Oh, my God!"
Thank fuck you cleared that up. I couldn't figure it out, cunt.
What the hell. People who are whiny and easily offended piss me off so much.
OH MY FUCKING GOD OH MY FUCKING GOD OH MY FUCKING GOD
What are you going to do about that?
Hey Don, if you and your fellows didn't act like infantile, self-obsessed, reactionary jerks all the time, maybe people would respect you a bit more. Ever thought ofr that?
That's not disrespecting your god, that's simple indifference. Now, your actual disrespect would be more like me saying your god is an insecure, petty, tyrannical, virgin-raping, baby-smashing, son-torturing, plague-bearing, burnt-flesh-loving, warmongering, hateful, bigoted, criminally insane utter bastard of the highest order.

Jeez, you'd think it was a porno ad.

ZoMFG!!!!2!!!%H1TL3R!!!1!1@1
"OHMIGOD" is an irreverent exclamation for "Oh, my God!"
THE HELL YOU SAY
Disrespect for Christians and God have gone on for some time with this phrase,
Hate to break it to ya sweetcheeks, but your god wasn't the first or even the best.
So, in a world filled with deprivation, cruelty and misery, you choose to protest a television slogan.
The Jesus of the bible wasn't anywhere near that petty, but you don't care, do you?
YouTube Land.
As your 'God' is 'Omnipresent ', he's in the target area of the Large Hadron Collider.
RL Mad Scientist Photonicinduction gets his hands on the ultimate Infernal Machine. He ramps the LHC up to beyond 14 TeV. A loud scream issues, then a bang: a big one.
Photonicinduction (in his smug, smarmy & flippant ayylmao 'Essex Boy' accent): 'I've popped it! ' >:D
Confused?
