    Any r rated movies ok to watch?

    ETB said don't watch r rated movies. Joe J Christensnen siad that in a couple of places. Cree L Kofford said not to in article on temple marriage in June and July 1998 ensign. So I don't see anywere were it is ok to watch certian r rated movies.

    When Passion came out my bishop said we don't need to see it in 5th sunday lesson. I didn't though some people bore testimony of the savior after watchng it. OSC even started questioning is there an R rated commandment?

    I knew a Ga's kid that said his dad watched certian r rated movies at home but better be careful would not look good for ga to go to r rated movies. He had a roommate that said I watch r rated movies. Hold temple recommend won't keep me out of celestial kingdom. Was Ricks College student and David in a talk I published on another thread about honor code called those people double minded man.

    There are proffesers that said there are certian r rated movies they will watch. I know people that know people that said schindlres list was ok and other movies some ga said ok to watch.

    I have watched speed but I do not watch any r rated movies right now. Won't cross my mind to see them. Is there a commandment. Would the spirit tell you it is ok to watch certian r rated movies. I don't think so. Don't need to watch them and since the prophet said not too is commandment not too I think. One professer said I know President Hinckley said not to watch r rated movies but some I will watch.

    I did watch Titanic it was pg 13 and made a point to close eyes in bad scene. Had on teacher close eyes opened them came back on. I would not of watched if it was r rated.

          Yeah, that part where they are dancing on tables in the bottom of the boat is pretty bad. I closed my eyes for that too.

                  I suggest that you ask your Bishop. We aren't capable of making these decisions on our own.

                    Why would someone sit through the entirety of titanic and then purposely not watch the only scene worth watching? Winslet had some major league yabbos going on in that painting scene.

                      grapevine, I encourage you to watch R-rated films on a regular basis.

                            Don't forget 40-year Old Virgin. That would be great for Grape.

                              OSC cautioned against r rated movies but what did he say about tv shows. ari g and llyod say it ok to watch if vince chase is in it so i think its ok. entourage is documentary and educational on movie stars life and friends very interesting. I think BRM would approve.
